Did you test drive the 1st year release of the F80?
"Over the years, tweaks to the BMW’s chassis and drivetrain calibration helped, but it wasn’t until the M3 Competition version arrived that the F80 M3’s potential was finally realised. Despite the 19bhp power bump, the Competition’s tweaks were so successful that BMW eventually dropped the standard version, leaving just the Competition and the rare, expensive CS available when production came to an end in 2018."

I had a 16 base F80 and hated the way it turned into corners. I agree.
I was new to the brand and didnt see the value in adding the competition pack because I hated the wheels (the original silver 666M not the later bicolor).
