Hmm lets see..
M5 has about 65 more horsepower than the M3, but its also nearly 1,000 lbs heavier.. would the M3 or M5 win in a 1/4 mile race?

Why then are you asking?

They are two totally different cars, and fill very different wants/needs. Drive both and then decide.

If you're talking about the newest versions of each, then yes, the M3 is faster in zero to 60 and is smaller, so it's more nimble. However, it lacks the room of the M5. As EdJack said, it depends on what you want.
