E46 M3 for an E39 M5 anyone??
Discussion
Anyone out there with an E39 M5 interested in trading up to an E46 M3?
Manual 2001 Phoenix Yellow, Black Leather, Piano Black Trim, Heated Seats, TV Sat Nav phone kit, Harmon Kardon, Rear Blind, 66k on the clock and FBMWSH.
I just love M5s and I'm considering going back to one.
Anybody want to go in the opposite direction??

would have been, but my M5 got nicked last night, be warned, soco chappie said M5`s are a must have for european scumbags, they have no qualms about turning your home over to get the keys!! get a safe if you get the car!
Arghhh!What were the circumstances? Any cold calling prior? Suspicious activity? An overnight break presumably?
What vile disgusting east european immigrants. Get a job and get your own

A straight swap?
not really wanting to provoke a rambling debate about relative values, but I'd assert that 'like for like' an M3 is worth circa £2k more than an M5, but thats not really the point of my post. I'm just looking to see if theres an enthusiast owner out there with an M5 who's looking to move to an M3 without the grief of selling/buying again privately or being had over big time by a profiteering dealer.finmac said:

I've owned both also - and I'd hardly say the M5 is 'by far' the better car. They are purely horses for courses, and the M5 is cheaper to buy. Hence why I'd potentially like to change. (IMHO)

E39 is a just a class above the M3, albeit starting to look a wee bit dated now... all IMHO of course!
(When you do get the M5, budget on £2-£2500 for (at least) a front brake conversion; although in truth, a damn sight more for in reality, you need to do the whole bally lot! 
I'm on my 2nd set of up front jobbies and they are shot to pieces.
Of course, this may have something to with the real world effects of entirely excessive 'Professionals' imbibement from hours spent mindlessly dribbling in front of Channel Dave and the consequent driving style enforced upon the tarmac of Satan's milling grounds!
