If you had the chance....

Would you keep your cossies that youve spilt blood.sweat and tears over,or would you rather have something like a M3????

Got a BIG debate going on in my head now,as the 3dr might be gone the week end,and im deciding "IF" i do let it go,what will i want next???

id keep the car and enjoy it first after doing all that hard work for someone else drive round is just wrong lol

keep it a yar or so then sell it on once you have had your fun

just my opinion anyhow

It's all part of the fun, blood sweat and tears.

Where's the fun in owning a M3 ?

IMO i would keep the cossie rather than have an M3 etc If i had wanted one i would have brought one insted of the cossie. When and if i do sell mine it will be to get a Noble as i cant think of much else that i could ever afford that will be as much fun. Good luck in what ever you choose

I'm going through this very thing at the moment. Was thinking of selling the FRS and the Saff to get an M3 or M5 or 996.
Can't bring myself to part with the Cossie after 11 years of ownership, so might just bin the FRS and get an M5 instead, fookin awesome cars and a bit more discreet than the M3.

i keep the cossy because i like 3drs, allways have. if i wanted an m3 or evo or whatever i would go and buy one, but i dont want want one. all depends on what you like, how you use the car, what you want from the car. i like a car with road presence, i lke a car thats fun, i like a car that has a soul in short it has to be a 3dr but thats just me i understand they dont suit everyone.

imo i would keep the cossie Pete.

but, if you do sell it, you can still buy another cossie,maybe not the same type/spec etc.....

have a good long think first though.

i'm going through a simlar problem at the moment
i've driven an 03 plate m3 and it was slow
nice to drive but didn't do it for me .
an m5 is a nice car , but i think i would keep the 3 door over an m5 !!! ( the m5 engine uses oil so check that first )
but i think i might get a bike , fast , fun and cheaper to keep on the road than a cossie
