Even a fully optioned individual F80 at $105k+ isn't a supercar. Even a M4 GTS isn't a supercar. He's in for a surprise when he sees what a real supercar payment is.

it might not be a supercar.... but it is a super car in my book

Can we agree the Audi is more exotic than the BMW




Fun light hearted question, how many exotics do you see in this photo?

Agreed.

Great car for the price? Absolutely. Supercar? Not even close.

To me, a supercar is in the top ranks at the 'Ring.

100% agreed, both mid-engine but from two different eras

Honda really did something special with the NSX, it's a total keeper and the one car I would never sell. The other cars are all replaceable IMO.


But the M3 is really the jack of all trades, the Swiss army knife of the bunch. It does everything well and probably the first car I'd grab keys to go anywhere, from the track to a road trip. BMW did well with the new M3 and offering it in a 6-speed manual like mine is the cream of the crop

Completely agree that offering the M3 with a 6-speed was a wise choice.

If it was auto only I would not have bought the F80.

I've had almost every generation M3 and it's always been a manual tranny. I made the mistake of buying my e90 m3 in a paddle, hated it and the car lasted less than a year before I got rid of it.

I hate paddles in general (my last few R8's had gated shifters) and recently decided to try a Huracan. Not a fan of the paddles so I just leave it in Auto Race mode but then the shifts are so aggressive it shocks my wife everytime on deceleration......

Put the R8 gated shifter in the Huracan and I can die happy
