Read the post above that post too....as I said an M3 is very very hard to place because of how well it does drive. I am in fact in the market to sell my S2000 and pick up either an M3 or an S4. Saying a car is not a sports car is NOT DOWNGRADING THE CAR AT ALL! Also, if you think that just because a Manufacturer offers driving courses that makes the car a sports car, you are seriously misinformed.
Well when i consider how they handle (having been in one), and the power of it, i think a training road course definately defines it as a sports car since its decent amount more (how do you say, "oompf") than your average inline-6. And to say that its not a sports car, when all of BMW's cars that are raced are run under M technology, i find it hard to believe that you can't see it as a sports car. And also considering that most sports cars reach 0-60 in 6 secs or under, i think its kinda fucked up, that Honda gives out times that dont reflect what that car actually does. Unless ive been misinformed, which im pretty sure i havent, you have to dump the clutch at 8G'z just to get a 0-60 time under 6 seconds. Thats not a sports car to me, that's money thrown down the drain. Would i take an S2000, sure. Would i purchase one, hell no.
Like i said, your opinion is well noted, but at this time, im going to have to find anything else you say irrelevant, because your opinions make no logical sense to me, or for anyone else for that matter.
As for the topic at hand, read the first post.
