Maybe BMW can fix all that with the iM3?????

The i5M60 is poor in handling, but it hadn't had a real M treatment for its chassis and suspensions. Try an M5 instead ... or maybe more relevant to the M3 : a Tycan . Those things handle pretty well despite the wieght. If BMW can do a similar job a porsche on a dedicated EV platform, there might be good surprises in the handling.
