although it's a little pricey for a daily driver. the main problem with any M3? it's not a sports car. it's like playing running in Gore-Tex Hiker Shoes. when you want //More motorsport it's only 'okay'. it still prefers to be living life (even in F80 guise) as a 3 series.

I think that comment could be applied to all BMWs. Their sportiest models at their sportiest specs are still touring cars at heart. A balance of practicality and a bit of everyday exhilaration. That sums up my 240 as well--the top going down is the most prominent source of transcendence when driving. Perfect for my needs.
I haven't really pushed it yet (because I work from home, the break in period is interminable), so it probably has a bit more to give in Sport+ mode (most nannies off and e-diff activated.) But in congested ATL, not sure where I can enjoy that. Top down, I can enjoy every pleasant day.
