The 335i just feels so heavy and just not as fun as the E36 M3.
As a 1M owner and coming from a Cayman I quite understand what you are saying... and Randy Pobst for that matter (I don't hate you man! ).

Where the 1M excels over the competition is in its ability to go sideways... in every way! It's always a challenge to drive as it really shows you are lacking the necessary skills, so you always find yourself pushing the envelope each time a little further... You don't want to tame its behaviour with aftermarket mods, you just want to master it as it is DSC off! It makes you want to be a better driver.

When I'm not driving it, I wish I was driving it... it's that good!

Everyone who appreciates a driver's car will appreciate the light, agile, lower center gravity type of car.

There's no replacement to it! No way... a little thing called physics.
