Also why M3 outlaps the 2010 shelby gt500 with 550 hp... Nobody is stopping anyone from buying 500-600 mustangs and camaros - so if that floats your boat - go for it!!

I get this but fact of the matter is consumers look at HP numbers and even enthusiasts here talk about the huge torque and hp of the c63 despite it being inferior. They speak of it being a better driver around the city due to the torque and power. So I feel bmw is missing a market piece there by not catering to the people who just buy the car with the most hp.
I do not think they have to compromise and can have both the best track car and the one with nearly the most power
