Default e46 m3???

opinions please???

anyone have/drive one locally? i kno, totally different car than an s2000, but im just getting tired of the smallness of the s2000. just my personal opinion. i want something larger than the s2000 but dont want to sacrifice too much handling/speed. seems like an m3 is the next logical step.

I think the M3 would be sweet, especially a convertible.

If you do go that route, please let me know if there is anything you would like to sell off of your S2000.

E46 is fast! Drove a friends once and he hasn't offered again ever since (I guess he pooped his pants ) Not really in the same price range though and the insurance is going to be brutal !!!!!!!!!!!!

If it's your money, then do it. If it's your mom's money and she's giving you more money to get you a $50-60K car, then think about that for a sec. You're my dong-seng and this is why I'm telling you you're too damn old to be playing this game.

The M3's a great car. It needs some mods from the get-go (exhaust to get rid of nasty buzz-saw sound; 19" deep dish rims; coilovers), but overall, a fantastic vehicle with room!

I'm beginning to not appreciate the lack of space in the S2000 as well, but then, I've always felt this way.

I really want an Escalade on 24s. Serious. More space the better.

not moms money this time... she did give me permission to trade the s2000 in tho... she wants me to get rid of the s2000 in favor of an m3... cool mom, huh! and you're rite, too old to be playin the parents card... was a little too old to play that card with the s2000 but whats done is done... and all i can say was that it was a VERY nice birthday/graduation/congrats for grad school present...

insurance is that high? i havent looked into that yet... i gotta check that out... but this purchase isnt probably gonna go thru til sept/oct-ish, i was just lookin for some input...

oh, and i will most definitely let everyone kno whats for sale (pretty much everything as i will be returning the car back to stock, even tho it is basically stock... )

escalade? haha.. balla balla... IMO, i never liked SUVs (except the x5, new range, and the ugly cayenne...) turning in the escalade made me feel queezy...
