Thanks again for everyone’s feedback. I loved my last 2016 F80 6 speed manual BMW M3 and it was a blast to drive but unfortunately I traded it in 5 1/2 years ago for 2019 for a Tesla model 3 performance. The model 3 has served us well but is definitely a boring appliance that is fast, easy to drive, and convenient and cheap to charge at home. My wife loves the Tesla so we will keep it so I am just deciding which second car to have for taking out for fun drives and just to cruise around in.

I am leaning towards keeping the Taycan Cross Turismo because of the it’s great looks, speed, comfort, and the way it corners with the low battery, rear wheel steering, torque vectoring, and dynamic chassis control. I have gone down the rabbit hole of watching some YouTube G80 6 speed M3 videos and that looks like fun also. The M3 in isle of green exterior and kyalami orange interior looks great!

By the way, I traded in my 2016 M3 5/12 years ago for $45,000 for our $75,000 Tesla model 3 performance and it looks like today 5/12 years later the M3 is still worth about the same amount I traded it in for while the Tesla is worth less than $30,000.
