A lot of chestbeating of current M car owners justifying why their car is supreme.
No one claims the E9xM3 an supreme car ... surely the F8x would beat him in all tests and on all tracks, but because of its lower curb weight, better brakes and more refined chassis ... and not because of the new engine.

BUT also surely the S65 was in M terms an much better M engine than the S55 - more refined, more unique, more emotions, more spirit and lastly produced in the famous "Sondermotorenbau" in Munich like all really great BMW engines.
