(I hope). Speaking of price, I think the CS price point moves the BMW far too close in cost to the 911 but unfortunately the only comparisons I'm aware of (with the Porsche) are with the GTS, a far more expensive entry...I'm rambling....
It trounces the Porsche because it has more room and it can be used as a daily driver more so than the P-Car can. The M3/M4 serve a different purpose than the 911 does. The 911 is lower and more oriented towards the sportier aspect of things.
