It does not feel like quality 80k car. This is a personal opinion, and many people don't care about interiors as much as I do.
Every time I go from my wife's F30 (with the latest tech) to G20 I notice a huge difference in quality.
As I commute 80 miles a day, I do not see myself driving a pure M car in CA traffic and avoid idiots every day. The experience just stops being special. You start getting annoyed by small things in your M car. That is why I chose to get an M340 and park my M cars for weekend spirited driving.
Just my 2 cents.
Couldn't agree with you more. I have had three M3 dailies and they are annoying to put it mildly.

I turned in my '17 M3 competition and am waiting for my M340. I had one for a weekend long test drive and the M340 is a very nice car. I have an air cooled Porsche for weekends and summer fun. Nothing compares.
