Could be that but I have seen only one F80 M3 and one M4 in my neighborhood so far. E90/2 M3 was more frequent. However, 911s are all over the place and even Cayman is becoming more popular. Clearly, enthusiasts are switching to P. I have seen it over the last 12 mo on track and on the street. The most common gripe from the new P owners is the M3's size and weight. There is a review in the latest Roundel (!!!!!) of the 911 GTS 50th anniversary by the former BMW enthusiast and at the end of the article he summarizes why he decided to spend 100K on the car. Talk about free commercial and a kick in the ass.
