Video Battle: Porsche Cayman R vs. BMW 1 Series M
Who should be crowned the best mid-size sports car from Germany?

As the boys form the Smoking pit the 330hp Porsche Cayman R against their other favorite midsized sports car, the 335hp BMW 1 Series M to find out how they stack up. You may be a little surprised at their conclusion.

So who comes out victorious in your mind, the The twin-turbo straight-six little bimmer or the mid-engined Porsche? Watch the video below and form your own opinion!

 

First review I've seen where the pick went to the 1M. I gotta say, I can't argue with his conclusion though. If you're looking for features commonly found in a family sedan: comfort, daily drivability, and practicality then of course the 1M is the top pick. In my limited experience with the 1M and my extensive experience with the M3, the m's are def more comfortable and probably easier to drive faster on the track than a cayman. The cayman is more engaging and rewarding to drive. I do wish it had more power though.

 

I should never have passed on the 1M
