I haven't seen this posted up here but if it's a repost I apologize.
And interesting comparison. They point out how the GT350 doesn't feel as nimble or doesn't feel as goo to drive but yet every other review raves at how visceral the Shelby is not to mention it's quite a bit faster around the ring. But I can see the M2's small fun size appealing and having great driver feel as to why it's easily a drivers favorite, it's tough but I'd pick the M2 but only because I'm not 100% sold on the gt350 looks. http://www.autoguide.com/car-compari...cs.com20170103

The 350's size is a turnoff, bigger than an M4.

Not a vette guy at all. I like to have back seats. I'm also cross shopping the ATS-V. But GM customer service scares me like no tomorrow.

Man just get the M2, how could you compare a ford to that? Vette is sexy as hell, but if you really want small rear seats, there is always the TT RS which is faster than an M6, sounds better than any BMW and has an amazing interior. It is AWD and auto only tho. |

I didn't get the M2 or GT350 bc everywhere still wanted over MSRP and I wanted to pay UNDER MSRP. I paid under MSRP for a Camaro SS 1LE. it's less exotic but it's at least AS good of a driver and track car... probably better and WAY less money. $17k less than the other two which I could only get "down" to $60k. outwaed visibility isn't great and it's my biggest complaint but overall the car is realllllly good. and since you have other cars for cruising ... I'd at least consider it. back seat, too. no less useless than the other two options listed lol. as an only car I would've probably gotten the M2 for its creature comforts, but it's mostly a toy, fortunately.

FYI the cabin gets a lot quieter if you plug the intake sound tube. |

10 out of 10 M6 drivers would disagree. Granted, the RS is reportedly faster in the 0-10/20/30....60 mph metric given it's AWD/launch control abilities. Beyond that, it will be nothing short of a bloodbath even with the close to 1000 lb. weight penalty. The 560/600 hp TT S63tu engine is the most underrated BMW engine in a lineup of underrated engines. The M5/6 truly defines a highway monster.

No doubt. This 4 year old C&D test of the 4400 lb 560 HP M6 GC ripped through the 1/4 in under 12 seconds at a supercar speed of 124 mph. Add the comp pack tune and it's 125+ easy. The TTRS won't even sniff these speeds.

I dont think it looks quite like a KIA but I do make an argument as it looks not much different than your basic A3 with sline package.
