How would you know? You have never owned one. Too busy ripping people off.. Guys avoid this guy... He took a deposit on a car and never delivered.

I just wish someone would have warned me. I gave him 6 months to correct, but all I kept getting was excuses on why he could not deliver.

I would def go with the m3. I currently drive one. Im selling my car on wed going to be upgrading to an 02 GT2. M3's are awesome on maintenance and are really funny to drive. There really safe for your kids as well! You can always put an ESS supercharger kit on it and smash a GTR (unless it has a switzer kit lol). I picked up my fully loaded m3 coupe in jan. of this year for 43k$ only 20,000 miles when i bought it. Im selling for nearly what I paid. Check out m3post.com there lots of nice m3's for sale there in the 40's which leaves room for a supercharger or $ towards your porsche ( maybe get both)? hope this helps. I know a ton about BMWs so don't be afraid to ask!

Your M3's ran 8's in the 1/4?

(I figured since GT-R's can run 9's on street tires without Switzer packages, you meant that your M3 runs 8's. Please show slips, this thing sounds like a beast)

9's on street tires stock? I'd like to see slips on that. My 996TT is a high 11's car. My E55 is a mid-12 car.

9's?

I'd look some up, but it happened more than a few times... It is no longer spectacular. I mean, it's still awesome to have a 9 sec car on factory tires, with a full interior, etc..., but it's no longer news when it happens. 8's are the next frontier.

(This is why I eagerly await Divexx's thread)

No 8's or 9's on m3's. Some of my friends hit high 10's with the ess supercharger kits. I didn't know gtr's ran that fast stock or with cobb. Thats crazy. During Mfest out here in Vegas HPF ran there Show car and it ran High 10's it was a e46 though.

10's are crazy fast for an M3. Definitely nothing to shake a stick at.

How about a CTS-V. I just bought a 2011 and it is quite a nice car with plenty of room in the back. For $3000 in mods you can have 600 rwhp!
