E36 M3 321BHP????

[swansea v6]

I have read all the reports saying the BMW E36 M3 3.2 EVO has 321BHP as standard, but have been told that this power output is a tad optimistic.......so how true is it? and does anyone know what a standard M3 EVO is putting out???? how does it compare to the 3.0 non EVO M3???

So it seems some of the M power cars vary quite a lot with their power outputs, how do the non M power cars compare? i.e E36 325i and E36 328???????

How can manufacturers get away with not givingaccurate power outputs for their cars? having looked into getting a cerbera I am amazed that their 4.5 V8 is well known for being down on its quoted output of 420BHP, how come??
