Both are good cars. How suitable they are as daily drivers is really up to you and your needs. In general, the M3 is the better choice as a daily driver due to more comfort options and cargo/passenger capacity, while the 987 the better sports car in terms of on-the-limit handling and braking.

Personally, my preference would be a DFI-engined Cayman S over an E92 M3, but an E92 M3 over the older Cayman.
