Hard to go wrong with a M3! We cross-shopped the M3 last summer before we bought our V sedan. My biggest complaint was the lack of low-end grunt. Once you wind it up, it really comes alive but I don't spend much time above 4000 RPM on the street. My wifes biggest complaint was it felt cramped - especially the back seat (4-door). Gas mileage was a wash - both pitiful. At least the V makes 500+HP and TQ. Not sure why the Bimmer gets such poor mileage. Excited to see what the next M3 will pack under the hood!
