Nobody noticed (or perhaps it wasn't mentioned here) that the car itself weighs 300 lbs more than the old one despite the motors weighing the same. So you got a car that gets killed on the top end compared to the M3 and has that AWD drivetrain creating lots of friction after the launch. So It probably gets off the line quicker than the M3 but then the M3 catches up and pulls.
