Would love to see Sport Auto's times for the M3 C and the C63S T, but they haven't tested them. M4, M4CS and C63S coupe yes. The vanilla M4 was 7:52, the E46 M3 7:50 (on cup 2's and the C63S 7:44. BMW's time for the M3 CS was 7:38 (SA was 7:42 for the M4 CS) whilst the GLC63S was 7:49.37. You can speculate what the M3 comp time would be if you want, maybe the mid point between the M4 time and CS time at 7:45 to 7:48? Personally, I would expect it to be better or equal to the C63S coupe, but a second or so over a 12 miles circuit isn't much.
I am not saying the X3MC is slow - it can't be with 510ps but it is not a typical car that gets taken to track days. I think the new M3 will put in a good time however and demonstrate the difference that the higher CoG of the X3MC makes, which is my point really.
Let's meet over at the 'Ring next year when the weather improves. I will bring my C63S T and you your X3MC or GLC63S and we can compare and after, I will buy you a beer.

I think you just proved that your statement of
"SUV on a race track, is like a someone on a diet choosing a low calorie donut" is just silly.
Although I like beer, The Ring is a little too far from Texas for me to go just to have one.
