Ok so can someone help me out a bit about the M3 thing. I want to trade my G35 for something faster, I was thinking either Current M3, New M3, Lotus Exige, or GT-R.

Problem with GT-R is that it might be too expensive and overpriced, problem with Exige is that they sell them 3 hours away from here and to service it, I would have to go local to a toyota/lexus shop instead and I am really anal bout oil changes and services etc. and now the problem with M3's Current one looks Good, but outdated (like the G35's look much better) but the next-gen M3 is gonna be faster. Problem with newer M3 is that from what I see, it wont be nice at all (fast, but not pretty).

So my question is, E46 M3's are wider than regular 3 series? (or do they just have fatter bumper/tires?)

if BMW follow the tradition of making M cars very very similar (less grilles and badges) than its non M version, then I think the future M3 will sux bad in looks.

Cant do what? Roll and squat on its soft underpinnings?

There was an AUDI RS4 following it on that track but once that turn came up it just kinda kept going straight till it crashed into the fence.

M3>RS4
M5>RS6
M3 CSL>God.

the "next" M3 can take on the S4, i suppose.....past that, it's pushing its luck! won't stand much of a chance against the RS4.

LOL, just like the old days...

Funny all those speculations based on bullshit. But anyway, much is already said here:

I like BMWs, and i am in love with the M models. But i can say that i dont recomend the new M3 which will come now, becouse in a past fey years BMW gain a very bad reputation. The problems are electrical faults, bugs on first edition cars (E63, E65).
And the new E60 M5 has some problems i think its called VANOS. :roll:

But Demon i recomend the new RS4/S4 and of course a E46 M3

If you like the new M3 wait a few years

I dont see the point in spending 70+K on the RS4 AUDI when you can get an E55 for barely much more. 8)

The E55 AMG is not so much agile, and my self i dont like the mercedes so much that i would buy it. Rather the RS4, or the BMW 645

I just cant make myself buy something that looks like it was made 5 years ago. All porsches look alike and well... thats what makes me not wanna get one.

I like the E46 M3, but it will look outdated pretty soon. I really want a car that looks good (and 2 door also). Just like with girls, I rather have a sweet pretty girl and have OK sex with her, than one that leaves me breathless but misses a tooth.

Read: 2 door

But that will be a great choice without that and money contraint

To be honest, I would suggest the C6 Z06, but I don't wanna start another war here.

The corvette would be a nice choice, but its still a little plastic fantastic :roll:

oh oh oh, not 645 the 650 is in town 8)

RC45 · 04-04-2006, 03:44 PM

Sure - plastic fantastic... 505hp stock, 700hp with cam and exhaust.

Pwnez no doubt, in my opinon i would still buy an M3 over Z06. Dont get me wrong i like the Z06, especially the exterior

and i didnt saw a Z06, but if i judge from Top gear test, Jeremy said that its still a bit cheap plastic inside.
Its not a big problem..

M3(e46) for me rules, outdated?????.......no way
