Suitable alternatives to an E46 M3.

[f13ldy]

I currently have a E46 M3 SMG. Whilst I think the car is great, I feel it is time for a change.

What other marques have cars of relatively the same power, handling etc for the same price (read I don't want to have to pay extra for the privilege).

Its a 2003 (53), most extras, bmw warranty 53k miles. So probably worth around 11k in todays climate.

Or am I pissing in the wind and the M3 is the best car I could get for the money?

I actually fancy a 911 but don't really want an old V plate 996 Carrera 2.

You should get alot more than 11K for the M3, Its got DW, SMG and low mileage, i'd say 15K + at least

I was joking with the 11k remark, as all forums I visit seem to massively underprice them.

I would be looking for 19k or there abouts to be honest, it is silver grey with imola red leather.

Plus it doesn't have a random ///m badge stuck to the nose cone like some kind of birthmark like the example posted meaning its worth at least 2k more...
