As far as performance, the base 911 is faster than an m3 and is pretty much betters in all catagories and on the track. The cayman S pdk is right there as well.
What the m3 has going for it is the practicality, space, and price and maintanance.

Hmmm, I donīt know why prices would be different (on a relative basis) in the USA than in Mexico. An 6MT E92 M3 with full options costs $89,000 and the Cayman S 3.4 PKD is $82,000. Iīve found this relative difference to be consistent in the USA as well where I have acquired several vehicles, albeit never a Cayman but yes for other Porsches etc... I think is fair to say that if you can afford an M3 you can afford a Cayman.
