Z4MC to E92...?
If it's any help I actually went to buy an e92 m3 for a daily but after 2 days of test drives ordered an m240i...

The e92 is not a car that lends itself to a decision based on a short test drive. I myself test drove one and was underwhelmed by it. It wasn't until I had a go in one on a track day that I got it. Up to 8/10 this with a salesman beside you there are much more exciting cars.
Revving an m3 out, and just over the edge of grip is where the m3 is incredible. Not easy with a salesman beside you
The point above about emotion is relevant. It wasn't until I got an akra exhaust that I really fell in love with my m3

Z4MC to E92...?
I went from a Z4MR to a E92 M3 and regretted it almost straight away and I found the M3 very frustrating in the daily grind, it felt it's weight and only felt quick over 6k rpm and for me just didn't feel any different interior wise than a 318d.
The M3 just lacked any specialness when compared to the Z4M, I did think the chassis on the M3 was far better than the Z4M though, and I found the M3 easier to slide around and the chassis/suspension just felt far more resolved out of the box.

Never driven one but been a passenger in mates
And played kiss chase with both cars
Lovely looking cars and sound lovely
Nice place to be sat
Though kiss chase time I left him miles behind and wiped him out on pulling away and corners
Big cars and heavier
