Regardless, one of my favourite cars today

Seems like the M4 has similar tradeoffs: track monster but not as much lateral as the Z06/7 or other cars.

Seems very un-GT3 like based on any other review and the fact that having had some decent seat time in them (have two friends who own one) this isnt what I would describe it to be like in the least bit. Then again, no one knows the condition of the tires either. The GT3 is brilliant on technical tight stuff especially when you consider it does pulls 1.12 g of lateral grip.

The Z06 also has 335 rears as opposed to the GT3's 305's (so quite a bit more contact patch) and he did say the Z06 was harder to work.
