Not a mag racer so could care less which car has the better lap times on the n-ring lol. If I was after lap times I wouldn’t be driving a hopped up 3 series I’d probably be in a Porsche.

I’ll take the V8 please.
There is some truth to your statement. Daily driven an F80 and now track driven my second F80 and I've found driving on the street is lacking unless I drive like a "typical" bimmer driver-speeding and taking turns much faster than sanity allows for. This car begs to be opened up and it wasn't until I took it to the track that I realized what this car actually is. Highway pulls are fun, stoplight races are fine, and a poodle can think that fetching a stick at the park is fun, but wolves hunt for blood in the wild.
