actually.... in a sense... yes..
Back in the days of the E30 M3.. the US got less hp because we had the catalyzed E30 M3 exhaust.
With the E36 M3.. the US got a Single throttle body model.. not the 6 individual Throttle bodies..
(Back then... a car needed " M throttle bodies" to really be an M car... (HEHEHE ... I kid for those actually old enough to understand this.... but seriously.. the US E36 M3 versions were called 330is (1995) and 332is (1996-1999) by many original M fans.... due to the lack of ITBs.)
Now that Europe has stricter emissions than the US.. the shoe is on the other foot and we get the higher rated versions now.. but at least all cars get " M mirrors..."
