Default Best DAILY driver for 60k or less?
If I could only own ONE car to drive everyday, IMO it's the e46 M3 coming in at 50k.

Would like to hear what everyone else thinks.

M3 is good but the 2 door thing hurts it.

I think the Caddy CTS-V takes the cake.

M3. Fun to drive. Decent trunk. Halfway, remotely reasonable back seat (barely).

M3 is one of the best cars, but it depends on what you need.

If you need 4 doors, maybe a LS430 or FX45 or 545i is best.

Xpander - it's in a class of it's own and faster than a Carrera. Trust me.

I'd put my money on a C2 to run quicker times than an E46M3.

Another car to throw into the mix is the C32AMG. 4 doors, cheap mods to get it into the 12's.
