Personally, I'm looking forward to the C63, but I'm honestly looking to downsize to a smaller model now.
but when it came out, it had the power in comparison to what was out. i mean a mustang GT had 300HP in 2007. Was just as fast as the 911 of those days also. It wasn't until a few years later when other cars really stepped it up.

of course its not all about power. there are just so many fast cars out today, the M3 is less appealing than ever before IMO. I honestly think the golden days of the M3 are over. the E46 days, and its never going to get back to that. the E92 wasn't even that great of a car, i just really really love this engine.
