totally disagree... if you're looking for small and nimble, even if your budget is $100k, you're likely looking these two cars. some guys limiting themselves to $100k may spring ford the 991.2, but I bet the M2 does well in comparison to the 718S. I loves the box steel 718S when I first got it (chose it over Cayman GTS and 991.1 CS) but after a month or so of ownership, I decided it wasn't quite the feel I was going for. I wanted to try the M2 but couldn't find one and didn't feel like waiting so I jumped on a Camaro 1LE. yes. I essentially cross shopped the 718S, Camaro SS 1LE, GT350, and M2 & M3. this is a totally realistic comparison.
my take on the comparo:
what I gather is that the M2 is more fun because it is a little easier to get loose and enjoy. the 718S is just so buttoned down that it was impressive, but lacked a little excitement for me. also I got tired of the rag top and PDK pretty fast, and the power delivery is just very ... different, and not very exciting to me unless I was on the track, where it did great. I bet the M2 is more flickable, but less truly impressive., inside & out. mine had 20k in options which was nice but I'd never spec the car like that if I were to order it. .
