bro...i almost pulled the trigger for the last 3 days, its been on my mind for like 72 hours straight, freaking sin3 and me are in the same shoes...im so tempted, i can afford it, yet i already had one...for now im going to hold onto my car for a month or 2, get alot of track time with it and then maybe get out of it.
OR im going to pay off the S soon and get both.

problem is ive already owned one and im not dying to have any car out on the market right now except for the nsx but thats too much.

get the ///m3 and lease it

thanks for all the input so far guys

right now, i think i am wanting to keep the S. i love this car so much, and i know that right now i can't afford payments on both. I think I'll get an M3 in a year or so, but this gives me the money to SC the S

How many miles are on your S right now? They shouldn't be very high if it's a 2004. I say you SC the car and make it a weekend toy, then go after something for a daily driver that's fun and (compared to the M3) cheaper. No sense swapping a great car that I assume was purchased new for a less reliable used car. Plus, we'd have to kick you off s2ki.

My s2k has 23,000 miles on it. I bought it 1 year old, but with only 2,000 miles on it back in July. I got a smokin deal on it and can sell it for about 9k more than what I owe on it

Anyway, I want to keep the S. My spirited drive through a canyon today reminded me why I love my little car so much!

i personally like driving my s2000 more than the m3, the s2000 is more raw, but chirping 3rd in the m3 is fun, too. 90 in the m3 feels slow, and thats one of the things i like about the S over the M.

my suggestion:

S&M. you cant go wrong

what's the point of more power if it's not more fun?
