I agree with all of the above. To add another comment here, obviously one has to compare the 991 to a current F series BMW to really put apples to apples.

Here, the price variance becomes even more apparent.

I've driven a 2015 991 C4S and a 2015 M4 back to back. Honestly, the Porsche was a nicer car in every aspect. It felt a little bit quicker, the interior items were of a slightly higher quality, the leather was a bit nicer, the carpet a bit nicer, the door closed with a higher quality sound and feel. The car handled in a more sprightly and sporty fashion than the BMW. But.... it was literally double the price!! $89K vs $45K for the M4! That to me, was just insane. I mean, it was better, but just a bit - not night and day.

I could justify spending maybe 10 or even 20 percent more, but spending twice the price just seemed like a total rip off to me.
