why wouldnt you go with heritage M german engineering over chevy made by americans. Dont get me wrong. Im an american but we must admit M4 is just simply overall better car than the vette

in fact I ordered my M4. Should be picking up in Welt soon. I once thought about getting stingray but I knew I would regret t
I love the m4 I don't agree with that. If I didn't care about the 4 seats and luxury of the m3/4 I would pick the c7 for performance.

What planet are you living on? What criteria are you applying here?

The Corvette is still in the running here because it's the best bang for the buck, which is pretty much its only advantage. If you were to ask anyone in Asia, or even in America, they would prefer a BMW over a Chevy. In terms of quality, design, brand image and confidence in racing heritage, performance, technology, practicality, comfortability, the BMW wins.

See Jeremy Clarkson's reviews on American cars if you will. I know he is biased but much of what he says about American cars is true.

I live in california and you live in detroit?

This my opinion... Anyone who can afford M4 would love to get M4 over stingray unless you are hardcore american muscle car lover.
Im not picking an argument here. Just expressing my honest opinion. If you like the vette? Then great I respect your opinion.

You living in Cali makes you better?

Most people who can afford the c7 can probably afford the M. The price different isn't huge. The c7 already sold over 18000 cars. People are obviously loving the car.

I can easily afford an m3/m4, if I wanted a 2 seater tho id get the c7. If I wanted a real 4 seater I'd get the m3

Umm.... u indirectly asked where im from so I said im from cali. Where are all these assumptions of me thinking im better just because I reside in CA coming from??
Ok now back to the subject, that price similarity of these cars. I have more reason to choose M4 over the vette. But I still respect you liking the vette and no assumptions of you what so ever!

Where did you get that I live in Detroit?
<---------- look here to see where I live.

And no, not ANYONE that can afford an M4 would love it over a stringray. You make generalizations that are absurd. Many MANY people can afford either car and as another poster has enumerated, Chevy will sell many more Vettes than BMW will sell of the M3/M4. You don't have to be a hardcore American muscle car lover (btw- the vette isn't a muscle car) to appreciate the performance and value of the vette.

We aren't in Asia and in America, the Vette outsells the M Bimmer. So it would appear that people here actually prefer the Chevy over the Bimmer.
The rest of your post is (as Clarkson would say) rubbish.


Look, I'm not saying BMWs are crap. The M series cars are great cars. I have much respect for them. But as car enthusiasts, lets not be delusional when it comes to respecting that another manufacturer can produce equally great performance cars. Your posts illustrate that you aren't capable of coming to the same conclusion.
