3000 lb M3 with 450hp = Interesting

5-series 4000lb M3 with 450hp = Uninteresting
The new M3 is going to be longer, weigh more, AWD, no DCT, and is going to have that questionable grille. I think a lot of people will be disappointed. It reaffirms my love of smaller cars.
Hmmm....there will undoubtedly be RWD, MT, etc. versions of the car. Sure, it'll still have to handle weight effectively, but BMW does a pretty decent job of managing that.
