I really don't get the BP members who seems to always talk about how Porsches are better. They're easy to find and secure at a very affordable price point, so put your money where your mouth is and just go buy one. I've owned many of them and they are great, but the pcar Kool-Aid hasn't blinded me as to what is uniquely special about ///Ms.

Had a GT3 for 2+ years....loved it driving it everywhere BUT the city - so I agree with you that the BMW Ms are more versatile for real-world driving.

Yeah, I'm still waiting for the GT4 to drop in price

- Apparently no claim by BMW of any weight saving
Should definitely be a great car but the base price is high (95 K Euro in Belgium) considering that it is mainly M performance and M4 competition bit and pieces added. Does not really feel unique.

If the car is 6 figures in the US, JUST LOL
DKG = DCT?
