One point, the M3 is still in the running mainly since I love higher RPM engines (for some reason) and big reason is the M3 has REAL back seats. See as much as it's a performance car it's still very useful in a way a Z06 or even 911 turbo or GTR is not if I want to use the back seats.
Friend of mine has a 911 turbo and once his kids got to be teen-age he could no longer use it to take them to school (then he goes on to work) so he drives his TL most days. I don't drive my kids to school but it would be fine if once and a while I could put 2 kids in the back. I am not sure the GTR would have any real room behind the driver. The G37 coupe has 4" less legroom than the M3 coupe and 3 inches less headroom which I think the GTR will also.
The rear seats are nice for a family guy to have.
