So if you are saying yoru xi 335 is a better handling car than the stang, than you imply the m3 and I have never heard anyone even claim that.

The mustang is also about the same weight as your car, probably less sprung weight .
I said that the 5.0 handles diff than my 335. frankly, it felt sloppy. But I'm not used to rwd cars. I turn the wheel and there isn't much roll and it goes where I want. The 5.0 felt a lil out of control, not even punching it. It felt larger. Let's also keep in mind that it was a 15 min test drive and I didn't get to know the 5.0 like I know my car. Dont worry, I promise your m3 handles better than my 335xi
