M8 comp is plenty comfortable and is my 24/7 car. Driven it in snow storms, 100 mile hauls, to and from work in city traffic.

Love the car, when it works. If you're getting a good deal on the M8, I'd say go for it. If they're only offering you 4-6% off, I'd recommend an S63 over the M8. S63 is slower than an M8 but still plenty fast overall and does a better job for as a gran touring car in my opinion.

We already have another Benz so I'm not sure if I'd want to get a 3rd one. I wanted to get the M8 comp as a stepping stone before I get into supercars. The dealer is offering us a 6% discount. Luckily I'm in a position where cost doesn't matter although I don't like throwing money away. How much more of a discount do dealers offer? I was also looking at the Audi R8, AM Vantage, Corvette C8 and a few others but I think the M8 comp meets my sweet spot for what I'd like right now. Was just worried about the comfortable-ness but you guys reassured it's a nice ride
