Yeah I know, just going by what I drove back in the day. I thought it was quick back then, now basically every car has 300+hp. Actually the overall length and wheelbase are less than an inch longer than the E36 M3. Going by the leaked specs the other week of the M235i, the 228i unladen weight should not be too much more than the E36 M3 3,175lbs.
