BMW M3 Critical reception

Ezra Dyer of Automobile Magazine once suggested that "...car magazines generally regard the M3 the same way a four-year-old regards Santa Claus." Car and Driver praised the M3 so much that they placed the E90 M3 in first place in a comparison test against the Nissan GT-R and the Porsche 911 Turbo.
