    Hard to beat those AMG beasts in a straightline.. but the corners are where the fun is at IMO.

    working towards an E90.... M3
    i saw this a week ago and was very impressed. id like to see a review of someone using the sedan. its typical bmw. who cares about straight line performance. a racetrack has curves. its still king.

    They cant give it the same amount of power as the E63 and S63, because then it would be faster, so why would someone go buy a car for $100k or $140k when you can buy the faster one for $60k?
