Here's why:

- Less exotic (less worried about putting mileage on the car, roadtrips!)
- More oversteer happy/much easier to control in slides (suspected)
- Not worried about parking it anywhere
- Less flashy
- More comfortable seats (although I do love the carbon buckets)
- Can drive it in the winter, on camping trips, etc.
- Can fit more than one other person for short drives

Same goes for a GT2RS. It's a much wilder car than the M2C, but where are you going to use that on a daily basis?! If you don't live in Germany (near the Autobahn and the Nurburgring), what are you really going to do with it? I guess the answer is you have many other cars, and take it to big track days a few times a year, but it has way too much power for the road. I feel like even 300hp is pushing it.

Don't get me wrong, when I finish a day at Mosport or Watkins Glen, I LOVE the GT4 – but most of the time it sits in my garage, or I'm sitting in IT in traffic, waiting patiently to accelerate to 100km/h.
There is a lot to be said for the 'usability' and 'under the radar' vs GT4.

Not a bad choice to be marking
