I remember the same thing. My recollection of reviews for every new M3 since the E30 is "OMG they made it so much fatter!" There were usually bits that they found better, but there always seemed to be a handful of things about the previous gen that everyone loved.

It sounds like this most recent car has an improved chassis, but the engine is a step backwards.
