as for me getting a lexus, i dont need a faster car than my Z. she is fast enough for street for me. anything faster would be too boring to drive.

I didnt say better quality did i? although that is subjective given BMW's reliability.

for the price of a m4 and rcf, the new stingray z06 will run circles around them and start at a cheaper price point than the rcf and similar price to the m4.

heck the stingray z51 would be quicker too and cheaper.

They are built very nicely if you had the chance to check one out.

While this is opinion, and its different, I like the look of the Vette more than the 2 cars in question.

I figured you were going to say the c7 corvette, that's why I said quality. I've spent some time in one (passenger) and Chevy has improved it vastly over the c6, but in my opinion it's no where near the build quality/quality of materials of a BMW or Lexus.

For pure muscle/speed the corvette definitely wins. As a fun/fast/refined daily driver, I think Lexus and BMW has it beat all around in my opinion.

I don't care to own a Corvette. But then I'm biased because I've never cared for them (and the grey haired men I always see driving them )

your arguments are valid but not really hitting the point. The Op said, which would you buy and why. my question was why limit to these 2. The OP did not point out daily, 4 seats, track car etc. Thus I raised the question of the vette. It is a very comfy daily driver from my friend who has one. and being in it was very comfy. (Mag ride is pretty awesome). Friend who has it says its his most fun car yet (370z, cayman, etc etc hes had before in the last 4 years).

Indeed. Client I work with just picked up a white one with the 7spd. That thing sure pulls and the interior is so much nicer than the c6

It's because these two are in the same class and Lexus clearly trying to target the M4 with the RCF. Neither of these cars are aimed at the Corvette, even though they can be compared based on stats.
