IS competition for the M3
#46
at the same price? next M3 will be significantly cheaper than old one eh? Not only that, 380HP can not compare with Z06, and M3 will be 500lbs heavier....
seems that BMW owners gotta wait for their upgrades lately... we always hear "wait for new..." . Neverending story...

and since when is m3 a car geared towards comfort and luxury? you throw out the handling, braking, and balance part of the m3, and throw in the luxury part of the is350. so it's apple to orange now? see my point? comparing apples to oranges is not going to get you anywhere...

What I was saying is that for 10k less, you can run with M3, bathing in Lexus luxury. Isnt that nice?

This might sound crazy, but , if i weren't allowed to sell either one, and
had to keep it for the rest of my life, and i had a choice of either an M3 optioned
out or a IS350 optioned out (for free), I think Id choose the IS350, even though the M3
would cost almost 10k more than the IS350.. I'd have give it some though, but
i think i'd choose the IS350, (with ML) of course.. what would you all choose?

However, if I were able to buy a second car along with either of these two cars, I'd choose ths BMW M3 and something else for a daily driver that I can replace every 4-5 years like I do now.
