Who knows, but I have experience on a highway around here where I really was worried and had to slow down, the car was so flighty it felt like a boat at sea. Took forever for the front end to settle over dips in the road @ ~120mph. You could feel the front end slowly coming back down, not cool.

At 90, felt great normal, past 110ish and you started to feel that softness.

There’s just no comparison imo, the m car is planted where the 340i is not. Never did anything to the 340i, completely stock, same with the m3 so far.
