Default C&D give their (expected) high praise to the M3 (link)
At least their 0-60 time makes more sense than what other magazines were reporting.

My only wonder is the verbiage they are going to use when the RS4 v M3 comparo comes out

Pretty funny how the faults that everyone else is pointing out (numb steering for example) are conspicuously absent :P<ul><li><a href="http://my.is/forums/f104/absolutely-glowing-review-m3-c-d-scans-336697/">M3 C&amp;D review scan</a></li></ul>

Default no reason to fear it at the stoplight.
"grip is a major issue"

yeah, no ****. it's a major issue in my 750i with 900lbs more weight and 60 hp less.

Default and by "pretty funny" you mean pretty predictable
All the sudden the subtle but all important steering feedback holy grail is ledth curbside.

Oh car and driver, you are so funny.

Amazing that with no grip it goes 4.4 to 60 in the 12's in the 1/4. Imagine with grip?
