After I installed my Ohlins, all the rear-end nastiness was gone.

You should not have to move to a coil-over on an M car.
Completely agree. Don't get me wrong, it's not like the M3 can't hustle, I just found myself in a lot of oh-shit moments when the balance of the car was definitely upset. Maybe I'm just a shitty driver.

Twitchy - slightly. Hunt - not really. It's definitely a quick steering rack, but I actually like this. It's not hyperactive like my Evo was, and that was definitely fatiguing on long drives. The hunting you are talking about is tram-lining and a lot of other people have said they experience it in this car. With my limited time behind the wheel, I have not yet experienced it.

Mustangs are a dime a dozen. No disagreement. It was one of the negative factors. It's hard to stomach that a $24k base model could be confused with a $62k GT350. But for me, I know that I could afford a lot of special cars that would really impress people (GT-R) but in the end, I don't really care what they think unless they're paying for it.
