At less than 200lbs heavier with that monster of an engine, good weight balance and amazing suspension, yeah, no surprise. Any time I start thinking about a faster BMW, I revert back to how much fun my SS with stiffer sways and strut braces was, there's just no comparison in handling IMO. I'd like to see an M2 about 200lb lighter at least.
