If Toyota brought over a GR Yaris I'd absolutely take that over an M3. Buyers who like sporty cars will appreciate any of these offerings from other manufacturers and wouldn't be relegated to badge snobbery based on a perceived elitist superiority (not saying that's what you were doing). But I do think plenty of people will dismiss a car out of hand bc of the badge. Lots of other factors go into a car purchase for some people. |

You won't understand the Type R until you drive one on a back road. One of the best drivers cars available at any price right now and is also shockingly useable day to day.
I do understand why people will get hung up on price and RWD vs FWD at first glance though. The fact that used CTR prices are close to retail prices for two year old cars says a lot about how in demand they are and how well they drive. |

I like his last phrase
"You see abs m3 and you say to yourself, I got this...the truth is, you don't" I had few moments like that over the years and those were the most fun

They are objectively ugly or "less attractive" when compared with cars produced by their respective design departments in years past. Yaris isn't a looker either. It should definitely be in this comparison, and would most likely spank the other three cars (in driver engagement and fun). |
