They both feel rapid and over the same derestricted road cover ground very quickly, as has been said though once it gets to the higher speeds the S3 would have lost out. On the mountain mile I would have regularly seen 145mph in the M3 whereas the S3 is running out of road by 135-140mph. I had the SMG "2" box in mine and the gear changes were much quicker than anything I can manage in the S3 which will of had a bearing on things also.
