Yes. If you actually want a sport sedan because you love to drive a sport sedan, the M3 is a way better choice in pretty much every way. This thing only exists for people who want to show off how many ambient lights their interior has while they longingly cling to their girthy steering wheel.

My real issue is with the engine and weight. Now I get that they have to meet regulations, but the engine (S68) is a bit disappointing power wise, because the previous two generations in the F10 and F90 came with more power with the S63. The weight is absolutely abysmal. What the hell is that man? Carwow showed that the power to weight ratio is worse than the previous two gens. I guess we'll just have to see how it performs in the real world once journalists and customers are able to get their hands on it. Otherwise I like this. The technology is a bit much for my liking, because it's more distracting. It looks good to me personally. Definitely prefer it over the G8X Ms.

The AMG GT weighs the same as my Porsche Macan S SUV! It’s a real shame. These are all fast cars but they are certainly not sporty. We’re losing any sense of feel in the steering and cornering, and all we get now is absurd levels of straight line acceleration that you’ll never be able to use on the roads.

Plug in hybrids are for reducing taxes… on companies, and are of little benefit to drivers. 90% of owners poodle around on petrol and whatever power the car can regen for itself but the battery hybrid system weighs 400+kg. Meanwhile over at Porsche they made a hybrid system that gives a boat load of torque, gives you brake regen, but it only weighs 50kg more. If you’re gonna say, oh but if you use electric only, it’s more better… then you should have gotten an electric car. Plug in EVs don’t actually save fuel for its owners.
