In the Z I could short shift at 5k rpm and pass cars left and right. In the M that would require 7K+ rpm shifts in every gear, every time, and your right foot planted at every oppurtunity.

I think everyone here has made excellent points. I also agree with statements regarding repairs vs. track time. I'm willing to bet Z will be cheaper in the long run if track time is a factor.

Well maybe if you don't count tires.
fully agree, the Z06 is sweet.

But sounds like you just wanna run with bigger dogs. Shouldn't be surprising that a Z4M has to be pushed harder (or can't keep up) with a Z06. these cars aren't in the same performance league.
