Thinking about trading F82 + cash for C7 Z06

I know this thread is from last year but just to chime in. The last two cars of mine have been M3's. The first E46 M3 SMG then I went to the E93 M3 DCT. SMG was clunky and the DCT was perfect. ( I also had a C5 convertible during those two periods. I bought it used with 30,xxx miles and put 100,000 miles on it with no major problems or issues. I used it as a commuter. Great on gas mileage at about 20mpg. The interior wasn't that great but a fun car to drive but didn't handle as well as the M's. I told myself since it was such a reliable car I would get another). Well traded the E93 M3 in for a used 130 mile 2015 Z06 convertible with Z07 package.What a beast I don't regret at all even though I paid more then I wanted to, you only live once. I'm not 27 so when you get a chance to own a supercar and you can do it go for it. Make sure you have a house first though. lol This isn't my daily driver thats what my mini van is for lol.. This could easily be a daily driver. I have a friend that went from a c7 to a viper and he loves his viper but he even agrees for an all around sports car and daily driving the Vette wins hands down. I do have their automatic with the paddle shifters but it isn't nearly as good and nice as the DCT which seems seamless. I also wish you were able to downshift with the knob like the M's. If you were worried about tires just get some pilot sports all around tires. Another thing mention people talked how crazy the power it has which it does. I see more people crashing junkers from driving crazy then anything . Respect the power and don't be a show off. You can kill yourself in any vehicle you just learn how to respect it and also learn how to drive. Don't mash on the gas in a turn or wet weather or you're asking for a wreck!
I looked as my BMW as a nice girl you bring home and the Vette as my pornstar that is naughty and bad! lol
I started looking at my M and I know at least the newer M looks a bit more aggressive but when I started comparing the 2 the Vette just looks newer more aggressive and hip.
