I haven't driven the E93 M3 yet, but I have driven the E93 335i which is also pretty heavy. To me, BMW did a great job of hiding the weight. Of course you can feel it compared to an E90 or E92 but the car by no means felt clumsy. And it did not feel slower than the E90 335i either. Oh and as far as compared to my E46 M3 vert, it did not feel noticeably heavier than that either.

If you can't find an E93 M3 to test drive in L.A., at least find a E93 335i and try it back to back with an E92 335i. Then you'll at least have some idea of how the weight effects things, and can decide from there if you should bother to hunt down a E93 M3 to try out.
