Dave,
Drive one first, you might be disappointed as they are a bit anodyne, and don't really come alive until driven hard on the track....

Wait until the new V8 M3 comes out, and watch the prices REALLY plummet - you could have both then .

any ETA on that arrival Mike? Prices are already around Ł20k! even SMG option'd cars!

Spend a bit more.. circa Ł25k and then you're getting in to the realm of decent coloured cars with all the toys and 10 months + etc warranty!

This summer (although probably not until Autumn in the UK), so not long to wait for the crash .

Aaaaah, so that's why they keep delaying it . In that case, with Alex working on it, it won't be out until 2007 .

my favourite m3 is still the e36 one, getting to be a bit old skool and yet such modern performance.

the modern one perform amazingly, but i just cant get into the looks of them for some reason.

also feel a bit too effortless, ive been on a 8.5 minute lap of the ring in a latest shape m3 (as in the one on sale not the new one) and TBH it actually felt quite tame, 9.5 mins in a cossie is far more interesting TBH!
