What would you choose..

I can't make up my mind.
Had fast, now have slow, now want a balance of fast/looks and creature comforts.
Budget max 10k.

I am toying with:

Monaro LS2 with nice upgrades done
350z GT - in black very well looked after example
E46 M3 - but looks a little dated so with csl wheels at least

What do you think, suggestions?

if you don;t need back seats, 350z GT

^, andrew, he says he has only got 10k to spend, he'll need ten times that to get into a green gallardo, maybe he can source a green 350z...... might be a bit rare though......

This car might be a good start if you can get a little knocked off the price

Add a few horses from Monkfish

Could be £10K well spent

However............if you look up the PH profile 007 VXR you might just see what sort of slippery slope you are on

Tricky one. I've never actually driven an E46 M3, but I suspect I'd pick one over a 350Z based on driving similar machinery. I do prefer the more GT-like profile of the Zed - the 3-Series always seems to look quite saloony even as a two-door - but the BMW has a nicer interior, a nicer engine and somewhat more practicality.

Wouldn't say no to any of them to be honest.

Had a 350 and loved it, would get another one ( or 370 ) if I could. M3 are more capable machine and problably offer a better all around package with the 4 seats

Not sure 10k will get an LS2 Monaro with mods, but for just a bit more you'd get one. Make sure it has the Wortec exhaust, ideally the headers and cats too.

You need to try one. I don't think they are that fast, but they are fun. Proper torquey RWD fun without a lot of grip.

That didn't last long.
