Its all about marketing and selling as many M cars as possible.

I lose all the way around. I sold my F80 for a 991 GTS. But if I had a choice, I would rather spend 40% less on an M3. But it has to be great out of the box, which the F80 is not. I cant pony up $100k for a CS when I can drive my 991 GTS for the same price.
I moved 911.1 C2S to M3 because of the performance/functionality I can get out of M3 with less $$. If it's exact same price, I wouldn't move from 911 to M3.
