425 HP to me looks good, I figured it would be 415. BUT the torque is a little low, I was hoping for 400-410 torque.

Before I bought my 335i I had a C63 and used to trade once in a while with a relative who had the E92 M3. The main difference both of us noticed was the torque, the C63 was a monster and was more fun to drive during the daily commute, while the M3 was a little better on open roads (which we don't have too many of in Chicago).

lets hope with the extra 10 horsepower, 70 torque and with the loss of a few pant sizes (both the car and myself), the M3 will be able to break that 4.0 0-60 range. I know its just a number, but $70K-$80K is also a number that comes with performance expectations.
