E30 M3 Handeling, **Why so good?** (archive)

I am a little confused as to why such a conventional car (e30 m3)achieves outstanding handeling performance.The e30 m3 is nearly identical to all e30's. So why is it that is does so much with so little! It doesn't have a low center of gravity (like a boxer engined car) It doesn't have the double wishbone control arms like the most modern sports cars. The e30 m3 is said to be a better handeling car than the e36 M's. If someone out there has some time, please give a simi-technical amswer to this perplexing question? Thanks
