I am pretty sure my response mentioned the M2?

Head to head against real M cars in what way? 0-60 times? Straight line acceleration? Clearly you have a firm grasp on what ///M has traditionally represented.

M performance = normal BMW motor with PPK = Audi S line....if 99% of reviewers choose the M2 over an RS3, how do think an S3, or a 235 with those awesome, ferocious, skinny tires is going to fare against it? (Here’s a hint, not well).

Buy into the M performance all you want, doesn’t change the fact that these cars are base model M sports with a PPK.
