Hi there,
This was a reply that I accidentally posted as a new topic….
Have you driven an M3 before? If not I highly encourage you to take one for a spin this will allow you to feel that raw hours power and handling first hand. I have a 3rd Generation RX-7 (One of Japan’s super-cars) and this can’t keep up with the M3 on the track, but a straight line is a different subject.
I’d personally prefer the M3 for a few different reasons but hey that’s just me, now if we’re talking a Turbo 996 then I’m sure my tone would change.
