You either need the larger car or you don't, it is that simple. BW competitor is the M3/M4, you need to give clearer direction.

Secondly, don't touch anything with turbo lag, you'll be selling it in days, you've made it abundantly clear you cannot tolerate turbo lag on this forum for years and years.

The answer to the question BTW is to buy yourself a Giulia. Even the 4 banger is a hell of a ride, tune it if you need to. EDIT I see you need manual. I'd think long and hard about a S550 Mustang PP2 Coupe. NATURALLY ASPIRATED(!!) Coyote with 460HP, 6 speed, 2+2 and it is faster around big willow than a F80 M3 Comp. It has serious chops. You will also have spare money to improve the interior, there's a huge aftermarket.

The CT5 BW is clearly a competitor to the M5. CT4 BW is M3/M4. And with that, the CT5 BW diverges a lot from the M5, RWD, lighter, more visceral, more raw dynamics.
