The M8 starts off with a compromised premise - 4 seats. If you’re gonna get serious about performance, why have extra seats that might not be filled most of the time and an unnecessarily large footprint of a car?
I actually think the variant of the 8 series that makes the most sense is the 840i with the straight 6. Creamy, fast enough and comfortable.
The 911 is built from the ground up to be a much more serious car. The occasion of driving one won’t leave your mind as easily as it will in the M8.
