I hadn't seen my B-I-L in over a year due to covid and we've both since bought cars. He was already impressed by the M3 while looking it over and I took him out on a very straight long road. As soon as I turned onto it I floored it and was doing 65 in no time. "Holy Shiite" was his response. I then let him drive it back and he was having a good time with it, and he's coming from a Boxster.
He then took me out int he Boxster, and I could still see how this car is a blast to drive in nice weather with the roof down. I took the controls even though it had a manual transmission which I hadn't used in 30+ years. It really is a lot of fun. It is fast but not the same instantaneous fast of the M3, and of course I don't really know how to drive it. I'd call it a draw, but I wouldn't trade my M3 for one. Now if I could only get my hands on a Tesla Roadster...
