You could also afford the roadster version, the 718 Boxster GTS 4.0. If you\u2019re willing to go older, you could, in fact, get into a 911 GTS for considerably less than a CS. You\u2019re missing a considerable amount of power and will probably spend the difference on maintenance \u2013 quickly \u2013 but hey, we\u2019re just the idea guys.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, the parallel everyone wants to draw is to the desirable Porsche GT3. But that realistically isn\u2019t going to happen at this price point unless you\u2019re okay with buying a salvage title or similar story. Though that\u2019s okay, you might miss out on some of the \u201chalo car\u201d feel that the M4 CS can definitely offer. There are some 718 GT4 listed below $120,000 \u2013 and you can even find manual transmission ones. It\u2019s hard to think you could go wrong with that, but compared to a new car with a warranty, you could still quickly rack up some hefty bills. Either way, you\u2019re working with a solid budget to find a good Porsche if it\u2019s something that works for you.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>C8 Corvette Z06<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/2023-chevrolet-corvette-z06-202.jpg\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-437231\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/2023-chevrolet-corvette-z06-202-830x553.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"830\" height=\"553\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/2023-chevrolet-corvette-z06-202-830x553.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/2023-chevrolet-corvette-z06-202-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/2023-chevrolet-corvette-z06-202-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/2023-chevrolet-corvette-z06-202.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-437231\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%20830%20553%22%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/2023-chevrolet-corvette-z06-202-830x553.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"830\" height=\"553\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/2023-chevrolet-corvette-z06-202-830x553.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/2023-chevrolet-corvette-z06-202-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/2023-chevrolet-corvette-z06-202-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/2023-chevrolet-corvette-z06-202.jpg 1280w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Ever the value proposition, the C8 Z06 \u2013 assuming you can get one without a markup \u2013 costs over $10,000 less while outshining the M4 CS in every performance metric. It\u2019s not without compromise \u2013 namely, passenger and cargo space and a complete lack of subtlety \u2013 but you aren\u2019t likely to care after you get behind the wheel. Quite curiously, it manages to dash to 60 quicker than the CS without the aid of all-wheel drive. I guess that\u2019s what a 130-horsepower advantage and 8600-rpm redline gets you.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, the M4 CS and C8 Z06 are very different cars \u2013 one being a RWD two-seater and the other is an AWD coupe with technically usable back seats. Consider a butcher\u2019s knife and an sashimi knife; ostensibly serving the same purpose, but at the end of the day, there\u2019s no mistaking one for the other.

With all-wheel drive, a twin-turbo six-cylinder engine making north of 500 horsepower, and zero-to-60 sprints hovering around three seconds, the M4 and GTR are different versions of the same song. Even their base MSRPs are within $3,000 of one another. Of course, if you\u2019re willing to go used, you can save a bit and invest in mods or whatever Nissan drivers do with their extra cash.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026Which, now that you mention it, there is the Nissan thing. Whether or not you\u2019re a badge snob, there is a stark \u2013 and we mean stark \u2013 difference in the interior. You\u2019ll be looking, essentially, at an interior straight out of 2009. That might not be a bad thing, though. If you\u2019re a bit of a luddite (or are just tired of the screens), the Nissan GT-R might be an even better fit for you than the M4 CS.<\/p>\n<h2>Used BMWs; F87 M2 CS, F82 M4 GTS, M8, etc.<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/bmw-m4-gts-photos-04.jpg\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-432833\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/bmw-m4-gts-photos-04-830x561.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"830\" height=\"561\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/bmw-m4-gts-photos-04-830x561.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/bmw-m4-gts-photos-04-1515x1024.jpg 1515w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/bmw-m4-gts-photos-04-768x519.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/bmw-m4-gts-photos-04-1536x1038.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/bmw-m4-gts-photos-04.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-432833\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%20830%20561%22%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/bmw-m4-gts-photos-04-830x561.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"830\" height=\"561\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/bmw-m4-gts-photos-04-830x561.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/bmw-m4-gts-photos-04-1515x1024.jpg 1515w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/bmw-m4-gts-photos-04-768x519.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/bmw-m4-gts-photos-04-1536x1038.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/bmw-m4-gts-photos-04.jpg 1920w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s predictable, but you can\u2019t talk about buying a new CS without mentioning the old ones. Of particular note is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2020\/11\/18\/bmw-m2-cs-test-drive-review\/\">F87 M2 CS<\/a>, which offers a manual transmission and will likely hold its value better than any other modern BMW.
