the m240i is a very fast car, I have the xdrive and some argue it can pull high 3 second 0-60 times, bmw claims 4.2.

the vette is a high 3 second car 0-60...

I think the difference in straight line speed around town probably does qualify as "slightly faster". At longer distances and higher speeds the vette would certainly begin to open a much larger gap, but I don't drive at those speeds so they don't matter much to me.
Don't get me wrong, I think the M240i is a great car, and I think Corvette's are butt-ugly.

But you're just deluding yourself (confirmation bias) if you think the C7 is only slightly faster than your M240i.

In the end, though, enjoy your car through whatever makes you do so.
