And that's why I ultimately can't agree with this statement: Quote:
But that's very different from what I see here. I see plenty of comments from people who already own and love an M3 - some of them with cars spec'd up over $80k, mind you, so they are very willing to pay to play - failing to be sold on the M3 CS. Sour grapes? I don't think that's it. It's just that the package simply isn't that compelling to the general audience. That's probably perfectly fine with BMW though - they only expect to move 550 in the US, and I'm sure that's doable. Now, how quickly we go from dealer markup to under MSRP will be entertaining to watch. |

I actually think it's a good thing for used F80 values. Think about used Nissan GTR and Audi R8 prices and how they've gone up
GTR used to be 70k car during initial launch, now it's 110K. Less than 10 months of production remaining for F80, so BMW is just trying to clear their parts and trying to give one last hurrah until the upcoming G whatever M3

I have no kids and don't need 4 doors, but got the M3 because it looks much better to me.

GTS is too pure track I e race car ish whereas the CS is more street and track so no I'd prefer the new CS with two additional doors for the same money.

A used 2016 GT3 sells easily 25k above sticker. I dare you to find a BMW currently that has that mark on it. Porsches are more expensive by a good margin when you look at their better trims. GTS especially (Macan, Cayenne... 911? Cayman?)

Maybe I’m just jaded but it looks too long or something to me. There’s an aspect to the proportions that just seems a bit off. I feel the same way about the 2er (same sort of complaint).

The M3 CS in current form seems a bit muddled.

Maintenance on the other hand, is definitely more expensive.

A rwd 911 GTS is where it is at for $123k. GT3 is a great car, but far less practical than the GTS, with the GTS winning the tuning game by a large margin. A truckload more money(initial cost and maint) for the same 0-60 time and 2/10ths and 1mph in the 1/4? No Way.
