You made the right choice...a stock E93 actually draws alot of attention and it was funny that you said you wanted something with less attention!! If you do intend to mod the E93, I will have to say that it will get just as much attention as your GTR does especially with the top down...Congrats on the purchase!

Driven both, minimal differences in handling. I would think an E93 with minimal mods would meet or more likely beat a stock E92 in handling. Both feel very neutral and you need to really push to break anything loose on either. No high propensity for over or understear like you find with most cars. I drove a factory coupe with auto when I took delivery at the factory. I bought a vert with stick and I'm very glad I made both choices. If you want to lower the roll, get some stiffer sway bars. The problems with most verts isn't roll, its lack of rigidity. This doesn't have that. Good luck with it.

I felt the sport suspension was very bouncey and cornering i felt alot of bodyroll...I changed over to coilovers and the ride is much better...I felt the sport suspension was way too hard...
