Andrew u do have a point, I just think that the SRT will take it, I have driven my friends 03 M3 and dont get me wrong I love the car everything from the seats to the wheels, in fact I would not buy any BMW unless its a M3, and even more that is the next car on my list when I trade this in unless I get the SL500 but thats a little pricey right now. But anyways, maby because its lighter i still think it will take a M3, But defintly would be fun as hell to watch them 2 go at it.
