Well he said he's get this if he had a DD. Damn right, if you have a DD, get the Noble. It's a pure performer on the track.

One thing though, the E92 M3s do feel very soft & isolated.

The car is no doubt fast and smooth, but it's smooth in the sense that it feels like you are driving a Mercedes or something.

You won't have a desire to drive many other cars after being behind the wheel of a noble for about 4 seconds. The only word to describe it is ridiculous. There is absolutely no way I would get an M3 over that.. DD or not.

I can't believe these two are being compared. If you have a DD, a Noble is hands down IMO the better choice. The Noble is very exotic and will turn more heads than an M3 ten fold. I love the Noble and think that the M3 is overpriced and outshined in its class.

I've always loved the subtle exotic look of the Noble. That thing is gorgeous! Especially in black!!!

I love the Noble and am impartial to BMWs, but as a DD you're probably better off with the M since that car has tons of R&D poured into it to be a passenger vehicle. THat said, I don't see how the noble could be that much less reliable than the bimmer since its drivetrain is mostly everyday ford products, granted it has been tuned to the gills.

Both nice cars, but the Noble a local dealer had in stock didn't look too reliable.
