    wow. thanks for all the informative replys!.

    i think what i am going to do is if i end up getting a bimmer, its going to be a m3 for sure, and i think for now i will get a e36, just because this is my first bimmer and i want to have something to copare to if/when i do upgrade to a e46. the car will prolly never see a race track, maybe a drag strip once or a auto-x once, but thats it. mostly just a dd.

    but i am seriously considering that silver e46 in that link that i posted, its here in phoenix!

        Yes. Please ignore my advice.

        Here's an idea, post nice clean modded E36 M3 coupes (like how you did with the E46), instead of dirty and ratty ones that aren't even M3s... It would make things a little nicer to compare...

        IMO E30 M3 > E36 M3 > E46 M3... especially in looks

                        A clean E36 M3 with fairly high miles will run about $14000.

                        A clean E46 M3 with fairly high miles will run about $17000.

                        Which one would you choose?

                          thats pretty obvious for me at least. I really dislike the body style of the e36

                            I like M3's but I definitely prefer the e39 M5's, 390 hp V8 and a Getrag 6 speed.

                                    I was looking for an E46 when I started looking for a new car, I was not able to find one new enough that I could afford to finance but that's what I wanted and still do. There really is not much in the US market that offers decent performance, gorgeous lines, four doors, and a goddamn manual transmission. The E46 does, I'm not hating on the E36 but its definitely seen its day. The E46 is what 10 years old but a clean one would look right at home on any new car lot.

                                      A clean E46 M3 with fairly high miles will run about $17000.

                                      Which one would you choose?

                                      you can find clean e36 m3s with like 50k for around 12k

                                      i havent seen very many clean e46 m3s for much under 20k...but then again i havent been searching very long

                                        paying 14 for an E36 is over paying. My best friend had a 95 in awesome shape and could only get 8500 for it. That is a hell of a lot of car for $8500.

                                          A lot of E36s there.

                                          m3forum.net sometimes has good deals for E46 M3s.
