Getting to the point... my M3 feels fat and I'm drawn to the 1M's performance. I'm discerning enough not to be persuaded by prestige or price. I do care, however, about the 1M's versatility.

For example, is the backseat for real or just a joke? Has any one fit a couple of friends or a baby seat back there? I'm an enthusiast, but I have a life I've got to make fit as my primary DD.
I'd go straight with a Cayman R or a 911 Turbo. The rear seat is good for under 5'10" for maximum of 30 mins.
