Post Finally SOLD the s2000

I love the S, but just recently sold the s2000 and now planning on upgrading.

My options are:

E92 M3
Corvette z06
Cayman S

Any recommendations? Any members have any of these cars? Feedback appreciated!

I dont mind much that the m3 has back seats, dont use that as an advantage point, i dont care.

I also considered a used nissan gtr. But I heard maintenance on that thing is ridiculous. So unless I was misinformed, then thats sort of out of the picture. Otherwise, I would pick up a used nissan gtr in a heartbeat.

Imo, since you don't need the 2 extra seats in the back, the Z06 would be the car to go with. Sure, it might look like a regular Corvette to the untrained eye, but the driving experience of a Z06 sounds incredible. Plus, with all that torque, you can average high-20's/low-30's mpg on the hwy while cruising.
Note: Never driven a Z06... Or a Cayman S... Or an M3 for that matter.
Whatever you go with, enjoy it.

I love the E92, beautiful car.

Can't go wrong with any of those cars really. Have to say I think the Z06 is the better looking of the three.

What do you like most in a car? That will determine your choice. The Cayman S is a sophisticated S2000 that is both quicker and better handling while not being as harsh. The Z06 is a brute that will beat you up, throw you in the ditch, and then cover you up for later snacking. The M3 is a combination of the two with the added veneer of a high level of coddling.
