i have a e46 330ci, lowered w/ aftermarket sport shocks and struts, performance tires, etc. but i cannot get the car to handle the way i want and i really think it's b/c of the weight, its just too heavy - 3400 lbs - to be thrown around. btw: the s4 is heavier at 3600+ lbs.

when i got the e46 i also had a VW corrado (after market sport shocks and struts, performance tires) as a second car and to be honest it was way more fun to drive. i know the bmw ppl are going spit out their red wine when they read that but i could throw that thing into a turn at almost any speed and know exactly how it was going to react and know exactly how i was going to react. w/ the e46 every turn brings a new surprise.
