Some call it the real successor to the E46 M3 given its smaller size than the E9X generation. Of course, the F82 has a turbo so the successor appellation only goes so far.
I don't see much value here, not to beat the drum about price too much. A fairly pedestrian movement viewed from the back -- a solid caseback would have been better, or much better yet, an upgraded movement at this price. JLC could also have made a more svelte model as an alternative to the Nautilus
