Ok time for dispute!

So here in is the issue.. I only have enough for 1.. :/ Do i get the E36 m3 or do i get the E46 m3.. dum dum dum.. haha there both so pretty and so Amazing on the road.. im not sure wich, ive looked over the pros and cons of each, lets here what you people have to say! Bash away

i agree both equally sexy cars but the one that fits you best. but im leaning towards the e36

I like them both equally, though I may be a little more biased towards the E36 as an owner of one. I think the E46 is a beautiful car aesthetically, but I also love the aesthetics of my car. It is a hard choice.

It really needs to be a personal choice. The E46 is an all around better car. Faster, better looking (IMO), and more luxurious. However, the E46 will still be at least $10,000 more then the E36. A 95' S50 M3 + the price difference in modifications will run circles around an E46. So if you intend to mod, get a E36. A 95' if you can. If you want a daily driver or don't intend to modify, get the E46. If you have ~$60,000 and some patience, get a E92 M3.

I think it mostly depends on your wallet when it comes to THE car...Who wouldnt want a new generation M3???...Black On Black V8 6spd manual dual exhaust.... GOD i'm about to have an orgasm here!!!!!:naughty:

Both are good cars but both have compromises.
E36 – The US version didn’t get the real Motorsports engine
E46 – sacrificed drivers feel for luxury

If you want a good track/daily the E36 is the way to go if you just want it for looks/status go for the E46. With each generation Motorsports is getting away from building sports tuned cars to luxury more and more. Try and find a base E46 M3 without nav and leather.

cobra is right. bmw might not even make a new M3 racecar.

the e36 has fantastic steering feel.
