Q: Would you rather have a GTR or e92 m3 in your garage given these parameters?

"Trans and diff changes are around 500 or so, depending on if you supply the fluid."

I'd seriously be doing all that shit myself.
If you can afford the car.... you probably can afford the fluid changes!

If they are that expensive... there has to be a good reason. Like price gouging!

Maybe you should relive your childhood and buy a '72 Vega GT

Let's put it this way: Would you rather have Ferrari 458/Lamborghini Gallardo performance or Mustang GT performance?

I'd say the GTR might be a better option. Automatic on an M3 sounds like sacrilege. At least on a GTR you have no choice and the car as it sits is legendary in itself.
how is a datsun legendary?
Legendary in Japan for decades!

I've personally driven a 2010 m3 (dad owns one), but have not driven a GTR. But have always liked them and would say GTR.
