Default Sell the S already?

New job I'm workin on could provide *quite* a bit of extra fundage...

I'm thinkin about picking up a new, or slightly used M3 Coupe....

What do you guys think?

If I get the contract that I am TRYING for, then I'll have both, but if that's not possible, what do you guys think???

That's a tough one. Both cars are awesome machines.

The M3 will have more space, more power and be more luxurious.

The S will be more fun to drive, convertible (So cal baby, unless you get a cab) and be less maintenance.

If you have the extra funding why not both?????

that is exactly my dilema

i kinda want the extra room and comfort, i'm a tall guy (6'2") and it gets a little cramped sometimes. don't get me wrong, I LOVE my s2000, it's my favorite car I've ever owned. I kinda would like the M3 cab, but I think it looks better as a coupe and I would have a hard time shelling out an extra 8k for a convertible

use the money that you would use on the M3 and turbo/supercharge, build engine, mod the crap out of the s2k. It will then own any m3 and will be cheaper
