even if you did need a back seat... its still probably a better buy to get the vette for 60k rather than an M2 and then get a cheap 4 door beater.

Even though the M2 and M4 are good cars. they are designed first and foremost to be a commuter car. Then the M division works their magic with what they have available. Its a compromise car. Better to buy a car that was designed to be a sports car in the first place.

As for reliability. Its an LS/LT v8 with a tremec gearbox. 6.2L with 500hp, less than 100hp/L so the engine isn't very stressed off the bat. only time will tell but I don't think there will be much of a drivetrain issue.
