Overall, I agree with the conclusion from bmwblog.com: "As the proud owner of the E90 pictured above and one who is frequently guilty of ///M nostalgia, this author really has nothing to gain from capitulation, but resistance is futile. The M4 is so clearly superior to the E9X generation M3 in every performance area. And not only that, the M4 is just as playful and fun as the E9X or any past generation."
And I would put the M2C as even better the F8x in terms of driving experience.

Owned E46 and E92 and currently own F80. Agree F80 is overall pick. That said, definitely prefer E92 steering and sound, and I also prefer interior. Do not agree F80 is as playful as E46, but obviously subjective.
