Haha! Comparing M3 with a Cayman S? Are you kidding me?

Since when are those two in the same class?

Anyhow, from that bunch no need say which one i'd take in a heartbeat.

PS: S5 looks very nice in 1st Luwalira's post.

?Dumbest explanation for not likeing the car ever..Period

Even a Z4M Coupe is more fun than a M3 V8. Its more agiler and nimble than M3.
I testdrove Z4 3.0 , 335i, C350 and E63 AMG the same day and my conclusion was that Z4 was the sportiest car and most fun.

Instead of Cayman Autoexpress could include Z4M and they would get the same result.

yup, when it comes to driver involvement, Porsche rules. I wouldn't consider M3 coming 2nd to Porsche as a negative.

The S5 dows look fantastic. Aggressive but in a mature way, just like an Aston Martin. It's lovely.

Yeah the Cayman shouldn't be there. Even if it one of the best sports cars on the market it ruins it for the other cars. It like doing an XK vs M6 vs CL63 vs R8 comparison. Off course the 100% performance orientated mid-engined car will win.

What a grandpa did drive it?

The French had much more fun & also it seemed the driver was quite heavily involved in the action:
