Should've just gone straight to the GT-R
I know i know.... but not dead set on one! GT3 looks appealing..
Until you drive one and realize it's balls slow has half the utility and not worth the $$$.

I need to drive one then... maybe a 911turbo. I like the GTR alot though.

Porsche GT3 is much nicer looking than the Nissan GTR.

Love the M3 - beautiful color. I still can't bring myself to buy one instead of the S2000, though. I love the engine, love the sound, love the looks, love the amenities but I can't get past the extra weight penalty. For a do-it-all car, though, it's tough to beat. Nice buy!

Great purchase!

Early last year, I came VERY close to purchasing an E9x M after selling my 06 S2000. It is still a car I very much want to own. I usually think about them every couple weeks. When I was shopping, my budget was keeping me within the 08/higher mileage range (around $40k). Plus, my dream car was an AW E92, carbon roof, 6 spd, 18" gunmetal wheels, and fox red interior. Just couldn't find one, so I lost the desire.

I've learned my lesson though. If I ever do purchase an E92 M3, I won't be selling the S2000 for it. Look forward to your long term reviews! And I do agree that the car feels a lot like the S2000... the steering, cockpit feel, windshield size, etc. I think the engine note alone had me sold.
