hey i was just wondering, for all u e46 m3 owners, how would u compare m3 with s2000? if possible be as specific as possible. thnx

 

The M3 has more power, more torque. The S2000 has better road feel, better handling and better transmission if compared to the M3's 6-speed manual. SMG-II is cool but not for everyone. Of course the M3 has all of the standard BMW luxury refinements one would expect to find in a $55K car while the S2000 has just the right amount of bare necessities for a true sports roadster.

In short, the M3 is the ultimate weekday car and the S2000 is the ultimate weekend car.

 

compared with the s2k, the m3 is a GT. the m3 is bigger, heavier, and less agile than the s2k in the twisties.

 

I think you should compare the 350z to the M3.

S2000 compared to Boxster/Z4 is a simliar comparison

 

M3 weighs 500+ lbs more than the S2000. It's a more substantial car.

It's a lot closer to a Mustang than to a S2000.

 

does m3 handle better to s2000 just in general? or s2000 better handling?

 

I personally liked my E46 M3 better than the s2000 in every aspect (power, aesthetics, seating, comfort, so forth). A major plus was the E46 M3 does handle well in the rain!

You can't compare these two cars.

Besides this, E46 M3 is a nice car, too many other cars coming out... E90 M3 coming up this 2007, is gonna make the E46 M3 OLD.

 

i saw some data, could be wrong but skid pad with M3 0.88g and S2000 0.89.. is that correct?

 

lets not even start the mag racers stats please

 

That's just fine with me Then I can finally afford one
