driving it hard and tracking it are two completely different things. I beat the snot out of mine for 4-5 straight 1/4 passes (read hot lapping)but that doesn’t mean it will hold up to the stresses of a track day. ask the guys who do this all the time, MPD, Onyx, Sureshot…etc

My grandpa had both of these and I would say the M is more fun. His S4 with APR tuned and other upgrades, but it still didn’t feel light on its feet in the corners.

I believe it had like 315 HP due to a smaller exhaust system than the M3.  
My grandpa also got a letter from BMW about letting the car warm up and cool down properly and extended the factory warranty. I guess they had some issues with the motor.

Wow… I’m definitely adding my voice to the resounding call of ///M!

It’s not even close as far as I’m concerned.

I’m pretty sure it’s about which one of his cars to drive (already owns one of each car in question).
