An M3 makes sense at 70, maybe 80k. But once you get near 100...why not just get a car that doesn't need to make any compromises for lower level siblings?
They’ve got an M3 CS at my dealer that’s 112K if I remember correctly. It’s a beautiful car, and I think it’s the best sounding version of the S55 that I’ve heard (including the aftermarket options).

But I agree - that’s on a whole other planet from a pricing perspective. My ZCP was ~77k in March 2017. Hard to imagine paying more than 30K additional a very similar car.

I’m glad they’re making these other versions of M cars, but the pricing seems to be too aggressive...
