Is the m2 a lot more fun for weekend drives?

I live on the Canadian prairies and never had my E92 M3 get stuck. With a solid set of winter tires the M2 will fair totally fine in an Atlantic Climate. The STi steering is much heavier; but not better. It is a hydraulic system, but has no advantages over the BMW electric. Like I said before the M2 feels incredibly nimble. The STi does not feel like a boat by any means, however its not as good.
The STi is fun the M2 is exhilarating. The BMW has much more torque and speed, better handling, and it is a much more sophisticated & respectable car in my books, but that might not matter to you. Yes the M2 is bundles more enjoyable on the weekend.
