A BMW is a luxury vehicle; a GTR is a track monster... 2 different cars for 2 different purposes and pending on what a person values, compromises have to be made either way.
I would have to agree. Each to his own. I believe BMW's are a great compromise for everything. Certainly, a GTR is a track monster - respect that car greatly. Believe it finished 2nd in Motortrend's Best Drivers Car 2011 behind the 458 Italia. Definitely not the same class of car as an M3.
