If you're looking into buying a car $15,000 more than 2011 M3 cost, why don't you consider the all mighty Nissan GTR???!!! I would

Here in the states, the Maserati Granturismo is around 120,000 and the GT3 and Turbo are around the same ballpark. As already mentioned, M3 is the better handling car, Maser GT much better cruiser/looker. But porky GT3?? You must be kidding. If given a choice between the NA/rear wheel drive/track ready GT3 to the FI/all wheel drive Turbo, the GT3 anyday and anytime. If given the choice of M3 to GT3, who here would take the M3, hmmmm...

Another thread asking members of a namesake forum whether they should buy the target car or something else. It's getting ridiculous.

That makes the Maserati more than twice the price of the M3. If you are going to compare a loaded M3 to a base Maserati and claim they are close in price you can make a similar argument for a loaded 335i compared to a base M3 or for that matter a loaded Accord compared to a base 328i. If you check of all of the options on a Maserati GTS the car will hit $140,000 which is about $60,000 more than a loaded M3. The closest you are going to get them price wise is to compare a fully loaded M3 ($80,000) to a base Maserati ($118,000) and there is still close to a $40,000 difference. We can argue all day long about which is the better car but they are not close to each other in price in the USA and are probably rarely cross shopped. CA

Also if you are going to compare two cars that are $1,500,000 apart in price you should consider buying 6 or 7 Porsche GT2 RS since the Veyron is a rebadged Volswagen . . . . but then again so is the GT2 RS. CA
