I owned a 99 BMW 328i and I loved it. Since then, E46 M3 was my dream car. Unfortunately, after a few weeks owing it, I found it a bit over weight. The SMG auto manual sucked. Either shifting too abrupt or too slow. I was never able to dial it to behave correctly.

I like the handling of this car. Three stages of suspension stiffening is plenty to cover your ground. I like the power button. More sensitive throttle response.
