The f80 looks 10 times better. F80 is a sports car, the M340i is a luxury car with some sporting attributes. Very different type of cars targeting different type of customers. The f80 is not for everyone, whereas m340i is designed more for mass appeal. A comparison of the two is truly like comparing apples and oranges and the existence of an m340i doesn't make an m3 or m4 purposeless.
Additionally, the f80 and f82 are from the previous generation. The g80/82 will likely widen the performance gap.
