But that's just to get it back to normal E90 M3 status ... which is a tad slow, soft, and lacking in torque. I am admittedly a little bored with it.

The BW is only V8 manual sedan left on the market. And unlike the G80 M3, I actually like the way it looks. It looks like it is a ton of fun. But I'd like to hear from other BMW enthusiasts on whether it's worth the cash commitment ... or if a fully built out E90 is still a better car for a degenerate who just likes to drift around corners with the kids in back.
You will only get biased answers from BMW people.

The BW is the 1 car that I would replace my Hellcat with for DD duties, but I am not going to pay $100k for it. For a weekend toy? I want something like the R8
