I like the E90 because of its size, great visibility and easy to place on track.

For this reason the E9x M3 was the pinnacle of the m3. You could make the argument for the E46 I guess, but its got a lot of nagging maintenance/reliability issues and only 6 cylinders. They'll never gain back what made the old M cars great.
Well put. BTW, I have the exact same mods as you lol. Ohlins RT, Alpine stage II, Test pipes, and Corsa
