Nice cars the M3, a couple of leagues up from the Scoob in every area... although performance may feel a little toooooo smooth after a re-mapped WRX.

Watch yourself in the wet.... When they kick, they kick. []

Cheers,

My mate bought one from new.and its been back to bmw under warranty a few times. Cracked springs and the exhaust looks like a cheap tuberex make..sounds a bit pants too.imho

Looks good though

Good luck with the M3,

 

I had an 03 same spec and colour, the estoril blue is stunning. They are great cars even though they lack the cross country ability of an agile AWD turbo car. T/C control does a great job in the wet.

Tip 1. Launch control. Switch of T/C and press the sport button. Move the rocker button until the gear shift is in fastest  position. Press the small gear stick full forward. Press the accelerator fully to the floor (Will limit at 3500rpm by ecu) then at you leisure let the stick go, if its damp f***ing hold on tight and prepare your self for battle[8o|].

 

If its dry you will get a perfect racing start with minimal well spin and within a second or 2 you will be flipping the right hand paddle for second, third, Great fun. although your clutch may disagree! Try it once you must![6]

I have had a shot of my friends M3.  Real fun in the dry, but just dangerous in the wet.  Even with the traction control on!

Thats why I would not get one though....The Scooby is predictable in all conditions, while the M3, or any rear wheel drive is just dangerous if you push it in the wet!

KIT KAT,

Check your mail...

I work for BMW and an E46 M3 with SMG is an awesome car, superquick and civilised if need be. Very few probs with them, although they are expensive to maintain.

Have a good time and if you get stuck with anything just shout.

that was my first car was a bmw e30 !! not an m3 obviously but felt like one (i was only 17!!!)

great fun in the wet as long as you are ready to play !! loved that car de-chromed and plastic bumpered !! then i went and swapped it for a golf gti !!! idiot !!
