Thanks for that detailed write up. It confirms my thoughts if wanting to keep my M3 forever as there will never be another wailing high RPM V8 in a practical German body ever again.

I think BMW tried too much to make the F8x generation power delivery to be more NA-like. Unfortunately, it never had the smoothness and high rpm power band of a real NA, and at the same time lost the shove in the ass feeling of a turbo car. Look at AMG's current crop of turbo engines. Screw lag reduction. Plonk in a stonking big turbo, who cares if it lags. When that power hits you'll be holding on for dear life.

I'd also be keen to hear your buddy's review of your M3 tho, especially coming from the viewpoint of an M3 owner.
