Sure. For canyon carving and mountain drives? Sure. But part of what makes the M2 CS (and M2 line, general) so special is that on top of being a high-performance track car, it's an incredibly practical and versatile everyday car. And with the adaptive suspension in the CS, even more so. I want -- heck, I *need* -- a car that I can take everywhere, so I'm not constantly finding myself in the wrong car when a window to let off some steam and have a fun drive suddenly pops up. It's amazing how many of these comparison reviews completely miss this point. At least Dan touched upon it in this one. Overall, a well-done review imo.
Yep I agree. Have 400 miles on my CS and love it, I love it better than the GT4 I had for 6 months. Is the GT4 a better car for sure, and if you are looking for something more skewed towards track days definitely to GT4 but most of us are using this as a part time daily and I need the rear seat and trunk.

I didn't like the gt4 and ultimately went back to a gt3 line up, for track days cars are getting so fast out there that I needed more straight line power...

Anyone needing a track toy should be getting a gt4....
