The E46 was the last straight 6 M3, which most people agree is a far better drive than the more recent V8 one.
And it's 350 bhp vs 400. The tiniest bit of driver ability will compensate for that in any race you choose.

The V8 is heavier and sits further forward in the car. It's the same problem that the original S4 and RS4 had. They're fine but they are constantly compensating for a pendulum front end. They get around it by epic numbers of driving aids, not by being a good car in the first place. And the second part isn't the slightest bit bollocks, I've spent enough time on tracks to know that.
