I've driven the X3 m4.0i and it's fantastic, but still nothing to do with an M3. My X5 has modified suspension and power and still, the driving experience saps away my life force. The more I drive it the worse I feel, to the point I bought the MCS just to not have to drive the X5 all winter.
I would have bought a manual 2015 Mini for the daily driving duties in winter and kept the M3 for summer.
PS: I have family in Canada and visit quite often. I've driven up there many times in my old E46M3 and sometimes now go in the Mini. Cars with winter tires work great in tough winters!
My sister drives an X5 and a Golf GTi in Canada, they get around just fine

Traitor!!!!!!!!!
OP - you're crazy if you sell your E90!
