I would get an M2 or a base Cayman if I didn't need the practicality. Obviously nobody has driven the G80 yet. But based on previous M3 vs. 340i/335i comparisons, does it make sense to pay a bunch more money for the real M? Is it actually better/more fun as a daily driver?

M3 will be worth the theatrics if you're looking for an all-round experience. It's more than a little this or a little that ... it's a lot of pieces that make the car more exciting from a driving and esthetics standpoint.
If it's a bit of a money stretch to get there, you may not see the value in it because the personal cost is so high.... but if you don't need to budget your life around the car, then you'll definitely appreciate what the M3 has to offer.
