UK Prices in US Dollars: BMW 115.7k, 911 113k
Eep! to $116k for an M3!
US Dollars, current configurator prices: BMW 89.7K, 911 102.5k + the unknown options.
13k US isn't a deal breaker for most folk around here, but that's 13k with base sound, 4 way seats, "partial leather" on the seats, base headlights, missing everything in the premium package, etc...
US Price if you match the equipment levels with the M3 as best as you can: $121700. So, $36k more expensive than a comparably-equipped M3 Comp RWD in the US. Not counting the current stupid markup situation...
Ok...boredom over, I need another cup of coffee...

I looked at both and I was heading towards the 911 as I'm married and we have no kids. I've daily driven multiple E36, E46, and E92 M3's, and all of those have been 2 doors. I looked for allocations and wasn't able to get anywhere near one in the next 12 months or so while I found one for my M3 in the same state at MSRP so that made my decision rather easy. I may sell it next year and get a 911 but that's still in the air.
