The ones without the dealer markup and fully loaded are running under $50K. The new M3 already comes pretty equiped.
The M3 is around 52K MSRP with a few options. And at 50K with the Cold/luxury package. I think non of the dealer have one without any addtional options on them.

YoungS2K, I've heard it's much more comfortable also. Well whichever you get, you can't go wrong.

Since you have the S and you live in chicago where you'll probably get some snow, I would go with the s4 as a comfortable bad weather car. Save the S2k for nice weather.

I think the M3 looks better. It also seems like it would handle better too.

M3.... unless you really like understeering and disassociated feel of the S4's quattro. IMHO.

The M3 is a better performer but aso harder edged. The S4 is a more comfortable car and is beautifully refined to drive.

My personal choice would be for an M3 for the same reason I prefer the S2000 over some of its competitors. It's hard and it's loud.

Either way, you won't be disapointed with either car.

NSX is a great car. I had one until late last year when I got the S2000 but it will also cost considerably more than either the M3 or the S4.
