All BMW’s are overpriced IMO but the M3 is a great car. About 10 grand too expensive but there are some reasons for it. The engine has a lot of technology and is more like a racecar engine. 4l vs. 6l but similar HP. There is a great use of aluminum and some carbon fiber there is also the fact that BMW’s are luxury cars that are sporty. They need to be comfortable, quiet when you want them to be, powerful at least in M form and an all around great performer that won’t bite you in the ass. You can drive an M3 everyday and it will feel right at home in city slog, on the autobahn or on a track.

The camaro is probably as close as I can get to an M3 that isn’t several years old and if it performs even remotely close it will be the best all around performance value on the market.
