Need an advice about M3

Hi, I'm from Italy and I'm new here.
Here's my question.
I found a 1999 bmw M3 for sale, they ask 25000 Euros (about 25,000 $).
I'm quite young, so my budget is limited, nothing over 25000.
Now I'd like to know everything about the costs to maintain an M3 (here in Italy one litre of gasoline is more than 1 Euro...). Does she drink like a drunk?
Are parts and checks so expensive? Insurance, ecc...?
Is it a risk to buy a 4 or 5 years old M3? Is the engine strong and long-life? I can't think about keeping it for 2 years and then resell it!
I know, it's a difficult dream to realize, but the M3 is in my heart since I was a child.

The alternative would be a 2001 Audi S3 (1800 turbo 210 CV) for the same price: good car but obviously my right foot wouldn't be completely satisfied.

Please tell me!! Thank you, have a nice week!
