Ahh ok that makes sense then. I was comparing to the reasons I went to the 911 in the first place was the planted feel of the handling rather than the power. For me going from the Porsche back to a BMW was mostly around wanting a cheaper car to mod + smaller chassis for the feel closest to the 911 with practicality. The M3, while practical just felt too large (longer than the porshe), the M2 is actually shorter than the 911 and felt that way. Engine sound also mattered coming from a NA engine.

In the end different priorities for different, hence why they make different cars to fit people's needs.
