+1 Even the testers say it has a slight grip advantage. Get on a some straights and the M3 will make up the difference quick.

I'm not sure this video really tells us anything. They should have done the same run a second time and let the M3 start in front and see what happens then.

Also, the driver of the RS5 shouldn't have been wearing an .:R shirt as it raises some flags, lol.

Just about every serious review has concluded that the M3 is hands-down a better car than the RS5 . . .
