Why choose a CT4 BW over a new BMW M3? Sincerely asking.

Thank you sir...

For the record, I am a GM V8 with a stickshift guy since the 1990s.
Love my stick shift SS Sedan daily driver and Corvettes, and am shopping for a CT5 BW with a stick.

With that said, with everything we all know about the new BMW M3 in the Summer of 2023, why would anyone choose a CT4 BW over the M3?
If you own a CT4 BW, why did you choose it over the M3?

I'm sincerely asking, and hope we all can have a polite and intelligent discussion in here.

Price and I don’t want to carry around oil and top it off after every spirited ride.

Price sure, but I haven't heard about G80s burning oil when driven hard.

If you want max straight line speed, the G80 is the way. Easy to modify to silly levels.

If you want to drive a manual, the BW is the way.
