R32 vs. M3

[Woppum 512]

You may think this is a bit strange, but i have recently read that the R32 is like a smaller (yet heavyer), less powerful version of the M3.

has anyone driven both and if so could you give an opinion?

My opinion as an ex E46 M3 owner

Its probably a pretty good way of rounding up the R32. The exhaust, weight and feel of the car are similar. Obviously one has 4wd and the other RWD. The R32 just makes all the noise, but doesnt deliver the speed of the M3. But it cost £17k less
