| Source: (http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/sho...threadid=25446) What'd you think? Additional articles regarding the E46 M3: Car & Driver Article: E46 M3 Long-Term Test Top Gear Article: E46 M3 vs. S60 R vs. S4 (Resource Intensive) ~ I'll also try to dig up an older C&D article which featured: E46 M3 vs. CLK55.

| Yeah, I think they hit it on the mark. Although I'm hesitant to compliment Audi on anything, they've really done an admirable job on the new S4. Four doors and the horsepower to match the M3? Kudos, Audi. Of course, try throwing an equivalent V8 into the E46 M3 Chassis. See ya, Audi!

| Let's all just hope that BMW has something waiting for us in 2005 or 2006. |

| I saw in a magazine two days ago at the grocery store (forget which one, just flippin through it real quick) that BMW is putting a 4.5L V8 into their next M3 that will be putting out about 400hp. This was the first mention of it that i have heard so who knows how reliable that information is.

| It was a total car comparo. The M3 beat both the S4 and MB in every performance test, but they took points off cause someone didn't order the M3 with a leather interior. The new S4 is a total pig at 3860 lbs, Its performance numbers stunk, I wouldn't even consider it as a alternitive purchase option to someone shopping for an M3.

| Looks to me like Audi just had bigger pockets to pay off the CAR and DRIVER editors for this month. They also had the RS6 beating the M5- no manuel tranny? EVO (Uk) and Top Gear both had the M5 still on top regardless of the huge horsepower of the competition. We just need to wait for the new M5! |
