Seriously that thing is clean. Is that shop in the Bay Area? Need me a good shop for paint and bodywork.
And I would take the e92 for practicality reasons.
E46 M3 ZCP fully modded NA, and enjoy it! Turbo M? You have no idea how much money you will have to throw at it for it to stay on the road and just in general, with my supercharged M3 everything had to be swapped out, beefed up and changed, if you think you slap it on and go you're wrong. Maintenance will prob be a headache!

AsianJedi and yutripnfoo,
Thanks for the kind words. I am excited for it to be done. It is up in Carson City, NV at a small shop being built... albeit very slowly!
Sorry for the off topicness.

e46
Anyone who wouldn't still take an E46 over the new, hyper-electronic, button-frenzied E92 doesn't know a real BMW. I saw a few of the new M3s in action on the track...with a good steering box and limited slip, the E46 M3 is still king in my book...and that design hasn't grown old since the first E46 more than 8 years ago!
(disclaimer - I drive a 996 C2 now but owned a 330iZHP until last March for 4 years and loved it to pieces)
