The experience is a better one overall, imho. But this part: "This car was more sure footed than the Porsche ever could have been" is a total fallacy. That is FAR from reality. Although I understand it's based on your brief test drive and not years of experience with the car. So, it's not that it's incorrect, but simply because it's based on a naive understanding. And that's ok.
I already have a DD (E63 AMG) so that allows me to be bias towards the Porsche as a performance sports car. And a decade or two with P-car ownership. And it sounds like you did the right thing based on your description of your needs and the sort of driving you prefer.

I'd love to have the p car too. I'm looking at 993's and 930s right now as Sunday cars.
Maybe I should have defined the context of my statement more clearly. In road conditions where there is less margin for error than there is on the track, I got the impression that the M3 was much more sure footed, but I agree that it was a statement made from little seat time in the car.
