the cayman S is a pure sports car, the 135 and m3 are not.
i understand where you're coming from, but the cayman S is obviously a better suited lap car than a 135i - imo the cayman S vs. 135i comparison would be a joke. the 135i wouldn't even stand a chance.

the 135i starts at 36k. the cayman S almost doubles the price(~63k). the base cayman is also more expensive than the 135i(50k). the fact that the 135i beats the cayman on the track while also having more practicality with 4 seats and some actual trunk space, speaks alot about how good that car is. let's not talk about how badly the 135i would rape the cayman & cayman S if you spent $30k on the 135i to bring it up to what you'd pay to get a cayman S.
