See, being driven both for extensive amount of period, honestly these comments really relate to more of auditory features, in that E9X series is just more refined in sound deadening than E46. How is it more connected? lol I am not trying to be an axx but these comments always bothered me. How???? Have I driven both hard? yes, both were taken at hard corners. Also, the throttle response of E9X M3 is a LOT MORE responsive than E46. Maybe I'm weird, but i honestly don't see how E46 is more "connected" to the road.

I went from the e46 SMG to an e92 DCT back to an e46 6MT (bad move) and back to an e92 ZCP 6MT. The e46 has nothing on the e92 M3. The fun factor with the e92 is way more than the e46...including the handling. I used to think the e46 felt more connected but after the Pepsi challenge I don't feel that way anymore.

A common thread among gearheads of all disciplines is "the older ones were better".
Sometimes it's true. But sometimes it is the unique character of the "old ones" that we miss. |
