Need ur opinion - 08M3 or IS-F?
#16
The OP is discussing the M3 COUPE and the IS F....two cars that are not really comparable. MrSlay and myself don't see why the M3 is even in the mix if 2 doors is an option or why the F would be a consideration. He asked for pros and cons....we pointed some out.
Btw, there are multiple threads on this topic anyways....search would find multiple opinions, multiple times.

Title: Need ur opinion 08M3 or IS-F?
Copied title above. And you're telling me I cannot read. Must be your brand of humour.
Your opinion that they are not comparable is strictly an opinion not related to the question of the OP.

simple. Question was pros and cons between an 08M3 or IS-F.
Why the bold letters? Needing to bolster your arguments
Why throw in questions about reading ability and comprehension? Am I getting to your skin?
Just relax.

Con of the M3 COUPE is that there are several choices with 2 doors that are far superior to it. Plain enough???

How about this one.
ISF- one of the best 4 door cars for the money
M3: 2 door- one of the worst cars for the money
4 door- nice car but falls when compared to the isf in performance, interior,reliability and price.
If I lived in a different city I probably would buy an M3 so I could be the cool guy. But that's not gonna happen web every grandma in my building drives a bentley

i was in your spot a month ago. You really just need to test drive both cars until you come to your own conclusion. It's fun reading people's reviews, but ffs, who is going to buy a car on someone else's say so?
you need to see what you like, both cars are different enough that you will polarize towards one. good luck in your search!

If you can find an '08 M3 with warranty left or a certified one then you can dodge a huge percentage of the depreciation versus a new IS-F, if that is what you are comparing. The M3 can be had with a manual transmission, so if you want a stick their is no choice here. Those SMG trannsmissions (or whatever they are calling it this year) suck the big one though.

It's really hit or miss with that tranny. Have a peek over on M3post....they actually have a sticky for problems associated with it...lol.

Based on my experience I would skip them both and buy a GT-R
Seriously, try to go on a long test drive in each so you can get a better feel for each car. They are both quite fast, but have vastly different driving experiences.
Definitely search as there are a number of good posts covering this topic.

Sometimes thats annoying to. You ask a question about 2 cars and you get all these totally unrelated answers. Somebody suggested buying an suv then a fun car, come on people stick to the two cars.

Don't think anyone mentioned this, but you're deciding between a used M3 or a brand new F? Why would you choose a used car over a new car when they are in the same class and comparable? Is the pricing similar? If so, I'd take the newer car every time, and in this case it's the F.

and i am just curious. isf is a limited production car??
to OP, really depends on what you need. although the two cars are pretty much in the same segment, but to me they are pretty different. and depending on what exactly you want out of the car, your decision can be very different. i also did a lot of comparison and driving and other stuff between the isf and the m3. at the end i got my m3 and i have zero regret
