I came >< that close to buying a 2008 C6 instead of an M3. I found a 6 speed coupe with Z51 as the only option for $38,900 brand new (sticker was $50k). But I didn't go through with it because I decided that I needed 4 seats and a full sized trunk, plus the car was too wide for my narrow driveway. And I'm also concerned about being able to get it serviced under warranty given GM's status. Don't let the old stereotypes fool you, the C6 is an awesome car. Even the regular one, not just the Z06. The regular C6 makes 380-ish rwhp stock and with mods it can go well into the 400s. Plus it handles very well (especially w/ Z51) and gets better gas mileage than the M3.
