wow, thats truely hard to believe that your m4 gets more attention than your GT3...

where i live there are already 4 or 5 m3/m4's (that i know of). and a boat load f80 3 series. and they blend in like any other BMW. have yet to see another gt3. its funny - when passing the M3/M4 drivers in the GT3 ...can just see the envy in their eyes.

Very odd. It must be the color. Almost every comment I have gotten starts with something about the color.

Yeah, I remember you saying that. I'm feeling good that she and I are good for at least 5000 miles. . You must have known early on that the car wasn't good for you to sell it at 1600 miles. What was it? Just boring?

Very happy the M4 is what you expected. It is a gorgeous car.
I know it's blasphemy, but I do wish the GT3 came with a rear seat option. My little nephews miss going in it together.

I bet you could figure out a retrofit using 991 seats. Be a pioneer!

There was an M4 at the Road A MVP event last weekend in the same blue with black wheels. Amazing car. Congrats on yours!

Thanks! I've run some of the MVP events there and will likely run the next one in my M4.

Good choice. 95% of the time that would probably be the best car for me. Which, I believe, is why you made the switch.

Mayur, you can talk your way out of anything. I'm sure it will be fine.

The new M4's are awesome, very nice. The two that I have seen on the road (one just like yours) had me gawking.

Congrats and great write up

Did you trade the GT3 in at the Roswell store? I saw a 991 GT3 on the lot there yesterday...

Have been considering trading my 535i M-sport in on an M4, so I appreciate your write up.
LMK if you are ever out and about, would love to see your car

Best,
Bill
