everybody has an opinion. I'm looking forward to the new M3 because of its size - I can dump the M5 and get into something more maneurverable, and the teens can still fit in the back. I'm not a big fan of turbos either, but if they kill the *$&@ throttle lag I'll be happy with it.

I totally disagree with Singletrack. I don't want to adjust my driving style to accommodate the lag in the motor. The downshifting throttle blip on a Cooper S takes 3 times as long to execute as it does on a e9X M3 because you have to - "wait for it". Heck with that. I'm a type A.
