You could probably run the same tire you'd run on the iForged. .5" isn't that much of a difference, and the stretched tire look is what the euro guys love anyway.

Yep. I have only bought one new car in my life, and I regret it to this day. That is just me because I'm in the business and have an awesome relationship with my bank so I can do some stuff on used cars that most people can't

I looked at a lease on a new M3 - $800 a month with about $2500 down, and that is a lease. I want to put some mods on this car.

Going to a 2002-2003 with around 30,000 to 40,000 miles makes this a lateral move from the financing I did on the S - I just pick up one more year of payments. I also think the M3 will hold its value better, and a used one has already taken its depreciation so if things get tough down the road I should be able to move it fairly quick

On top of all that we have a BMW store, so fixing things isn't that bad.
