I think it's fairly simple. As others have said, the M3 just has more time, effort, and expertise pumped into it. That's why it costs so damned much. That and you pay a premium for the badge. Compared to an M3, a Japanese built performance engine is just (usualy) crude power by slapping a turbocharger on there.

Ofcourse, said crude power is still pretty good. Very Happy

But then you can look at the NSX. It isn't as powerfull as an M3, but it's close, with similar displacement and in N/A form. Then look at the NSX pricetag too. It's obvious that Japan can make N/A revvers that are close to Euro performance, but they have to up the price too. N/A just costs a lot to make powerfull, unlike forced induction engines.
