If you are in the position to get an automatic transmission mid engine sports car, I don't see why you wouldn't get the C8. The car is an absolute bargain for what you get. I'd still get it with the full leather interior and MagneRide at the very least. Magnetic Ride suspension is miles better than the adaptive suspension in the M3. I got a 2017 Chevy SS and the suspension feels like it was tuned by the gods. It's got an excellent Tremec transmission as well. Definitely better than my F30.

The things you'd have to get over: flashiness, impracticality, and GM build quality. Regardless of how much leather they put on the car, it won't quite be as good as a German interior. If they improve on the C8 as much as they improved going from C6 to C7, though, I bet it'll be more than tolerable.
