2008 BMW M3 -- 1:42.96
2010 Camaro -- 1:45.72
I decided, for kicks and giggles to go online and build myself an identically-equipped M3 and Chevy Camaro. I recognize the more advanced technologies built into the M3...it's the German way to make things more complicated than they need to be...but all I'm concerned with here is the bottom line:
BMW M3: $63,000
Camaro: $36,000
Difference: $27,000
So, for $27,000, you get a whole...2.76 seconds around a track. Or...$10,000 a second....yup....sounds worth it to me. Besides, 2010 was Chevy's first attempt. In the coming years, the Camaro will be further refined to reduce that gap significantly...

2010 was the first Camaro?
lol jkkkkkkkk.
63k is a steep comparison to 36k if your only thinking about performance.... and around Laguna Seca at that. If I remember correctly the difference is about 20 seconds around the Nurburgring. I'd pay 50-55k for an M3, because of the great performance, but also because of just how nice the car is.
