Default Am I betraying the S? (M series)

I worked on a BMW M series convertible last night, and quite frankly, I'm in love. I love my S, but damn that thing was sweet. I really never cared for European cars, but something struck me about that thing.

Anybody have one that can share their opinions or compare the two? Thanks everyone.

The latest e46 M3 is to die for... nothing to feel bad about. If I really felt like dropping around $50k on a car, it'd be on that one.

The lateste BMW-M3 (E46) is a hell of a car !
A friend of mine is looking at getting a used one (2001-2002) same as the current model. We test-drove one here in CT and man, was i impressed ! What a car for the $$$. Its alot of dough, BUT its alot of car too for that money. I dont think anything in that price range compares to the M3, its an all around sweet sports-car With 333 HP on tap and a ton of nice options like 19"Polished wheels (that looks gorgeous i might add) zenon lighting,heated seats,harmon kardon stereo etc etc. If i could, i would love to have a M3 convertible MAYBE NEXT CAR ? we will see

Been there, done that, unfortunately. But, in both cases, they're fun to drive!

I love the M3. IMO it's about 15K overpriced and a few hundred pounds overweight. Otherwise - I might be driving one...
