Like I have said before, I really like my M3, but I feel that I will love the M4. To each their own.
To me it has really nothing to do with the abilities or shortcomings ( are there really any? ) of my E90 M3. It's more that I don't keep my car past original warranty and I like something a bit different after a couple of years.

That said I spent over 10h in the car the last 2 days, all in glorious weather and many on open backroads and I had such a pang of early separation anxiety. This car is bloody awesome, the way it connects into your soul and senses is like a runners high. The new car will need to be exceedingly good to just stay on level, which I think (hope?) it will be. Everything that counts in the current M3 is superb, suspension, steering, chassi, engine, sound, seats, steering wheel, controls, tranny and overall feel. It could be the best 4 door EVER made.
