I feel most people get the best car they can afford, usually. You don't buy an M4 because you like it better than a GT3! If you need 4 doors then I get it. If you can afford a GT3 your most likely buying that right off the jump. Why would you even look at the BMW? If you could afford a 458/488 Ferrari you get that and not the Porsche. I always like having 2 cars. I could do a GT3 for what I have in my 2 cars combined, but not what I like to do.
I agree, which is why I chuckle at the comments. Outside of familial needs, as you've already mentioned, if one can buy the P-Car from day one, they usually do. I know if I could afford a new 6MT GT3, I would not be in a BMW. The people claiming they'll leave almost never do. There's this threat of mass exodus every new iteration of M.
