BMW is not out to compete with those cars because doing so will sacrifice the balance that the M3 offers.
What's making the M3 so primitive is the weight & lack of torque! If BMW would simply put the M on a diet I have doubt the M would be better able to compete and yet still be balanced! IMHO anyways.........
