I drive both an m340i and also have a g82 m4, as well has had an f8x m4. The point of this post was to give my opinion on if an M340i deserved an m performance badge even though it's not a true M car. I don't think anyone here has said they are both the same tier of performance, my point was just that they are slowing bridging the gap. My e9x 335 was no where near half the car the e9x m3 was. However I could see similarities between my g20/g82.
