This is nothing new.
I understand that this is the G80 forum but to say that the "M3(4) have always offered "near" 911 levels of driving engagement and driving spirit " is pushing it a bit especially lately.
Not according to MotorTrend. According to them the G80 is very close to the 911 in speed and feel.
