E46 330i ZHP to E90 M3, will I be happy?

Short version:
Has anyone gone from an e46 ZHP to an e90/e92/e93 M3?
What are the pros and cons?

Long version:

I'm currently in a 2005 e46 330i ZHP, which I love. The car handles incredibly well and has enough power for city driving. Honestly, I'd be happy to stay in the ZHP, but I know that I only have a limited time to take advantage of this carte blanche new car offer.

I test drove an e90 335i, and it as ok, but didn't seem that much better than the ZHP (handling maybe a little worse, but more power). I drove an F10 535i and it handled like a boat. So the F10 535i and 550i are out.

So, it's either an e90 M3 or F10 M5. Can anyone with an e90/e92/e93 M3 comment on how this is going to compare to my current ZHP?
