LOL the then New Audi RS4 was compared to the old E46 M3. Remember this?

Its normal to compare the new car on the block with the old one. It just means the old one was such a champion that car manufactures tried hard to make something better and a comparison is inevitable. They are not practically comparable but they still are both cars that people are looking at and considering to buy. Not everyone buying an M3 or C7 is married or has kids. And some people are looking for a second car so for them the two seater comments are irrelevant and moot.
I drive a 2 seater now and love it. I have no kids so the C7 is actually a consideration for me even though I've been a long time BMW fan. BMW used to make naturally aspirated, light, and high reving engine sports cars. Now they are a lot heavier, forced induction and changed with the times and the competition I guess. Given the choice between the M4 and the C7 I would not hesitate for a second to get the C7 and I love the new M4. But $80K+ for a 4 series withe options is rediculous. The Z07 will obliterate almost anything on the road or track. I'm truly impressed with everything about this car but I only wish it wasn't 200lbs heavier. I also hope they would consider to add is a dual clutch transmission down the road for lightning fast shifts. Who knows...
