Again, I said driving experience. You're talking numbers.

It really isn't. As I've pointed out, there are rarer cars out there that aren't exactly touted for being awesome because they are rare. As I stated, there is also the issue of whether or not rarity should influence the buying decision. That's simply a nonissue for me. Obviously, some disagree.

As to the question of driving experience of both cars under consideration, this is a good bit to watch.

M3 = 2nd rate now before it even came out.. I wouldn't choose one over a 335 that I can mod up quite easily to the same levels of power.. On a video they used a new M3 and burned off it's tires to warm up a wet track so that they can test the GTR. Talk about disrespected.
The solution to the original guys problem is to simply have a 2 year lease on the M3 this year and save up to purchase the GTR later. 2nd year model has more bugs worked out and who knows by that time you might be itching for the spec V that should be out.

Bingo! Some things you just can't get on paper.. Got to drive both cars for himself. I am sure both cars will vary in driver feel. I could care less if I will be 1 of 5 people on the planet with a certain vehicle. If you are one with a bloated ego, then the rarer vehicle fits the bill. It all depends on what you seek.

Looks like I am just going to wait for the GTR. Everytime I see this car, it just blows me away.
Some of you are right. I will regret it if I get M3 and everytime I see a GTR driving pass by.

Leasing a M3 doesnt really make sense to me. I think the payment will probably around 1200$ range, or so. BMW doesn't really offer great lease rate on M3 at this point.

I'm sorry but I just can't wait to meet one on the highway. Finally more cocky drivers.
On that note I'm a patient person and I will wait. See what Toyota and other companies come out with. Hopefully it'll be something like 300ZX vs Supra vs RX7 vs 3000GT.
