Compared to a 1M, the M4 is a FOOT LONGER.

It won't even fit in the same ( read: my) garage space as an E36 M3, E46 M3, or a 1M.

There cars are NOT that similar. and all this is s before we start talking the 15K price difference..... Most people don't cross shop cars 15K apart.
Good points. I think the M3 makes much more sense from a sizing perspective. If you are looking for a 2 door sportscar, a cayman s or a c7 make do with a lot less compromise.
