I know, but aren't the M3 and S4 in the same class? That's why I said that. BMW's are usually faster... in a straight line!

^ +1 Not to mention the M3 is a 2-door sports coupe. M3 should be paired against the S5. The 335 is a perfect comparison to the S4 for all the right reasons.

I think M3's are usually tested against RS4's.

Regardless, the E90 is still decent with a chip. I somehow don't feel the comparison is fair tho since the S probably has more sport tunes than the 3 series.
