The 991S is simply a step above the M3, no question about it. The build quality, the fit and finish are clearly a notch up. The steering and handling, which are impressive in the M3, are even moreso in the 911S. When you drive it, the price starts to be justified to a degree. The one area where the M3 is better is the engine. Until you get into exotics, there is really nothing like the S65 motor in terms of its overall character. The 911 is high on the list for my M3 replacement, although my M3 is a 2011, and I'm not into flipping cars as often as some people, so I have a few years to go.
Now....the 911 is not as comfortable or smooth. If is definitely more of a pure sports car. Keep that in mind when you consider how you actually drive. Even though my M3 is a pure toy for me, I needed a certain amount of comfort for longer drives and, although limited, I needed a back seat.
So once again, think not just about the car, but how it actually fits into your life.
