In contrast, the m3 has lost 200 lbs over the prior gen and has many tech features and stiffer materiels which will vastly improve handling.
The m5 is much larger than the m3 and is ~ 1000+ lbs heavier.
Yes, 1000 lbs.
The m5 and m3 had totally differnt goals and deviate from their predecessors in completely opposite ways. So a comparison between the two on anything but the type of engine is a mistake

But the comparison is not between M3 and M5, but rather between M5 and its peers. And it does not fare well.
And then the fear is that the same team designed the M3...
