Another £50K M12 - maybe...
Discussion
There will always be two sides of the coin. Along with those who hate because they are jealous as the couldn’t even dream of owning one. Here, rightly so will be full of love as we are all either owners or have a good feeling towards the marque.
Threads like that one are only a good thing as it’s keeps attention on the car and reminds people of them from the past. I took a positive vibe from reading it

I had the use of a friend's E46 M3 SMG cabriolet for about 6 weeks daily and I couldn't understand the love - but then it was a cab and it was SMG which on the road was just awful...
I now have an E93 335i cab with DCT as a daily when my wife lets me use it. Incredible difference to the older M3 of similar vein and another friend has a manual E90 M3 which he tracks regularly. His view is that it's perfect and anyone should try one at least once, although mine is actually faster in a straight line after a few very cheap and simple upgrades.

Never seen so many for sale as there is at the moment, 12 on PH [ 2 sold] but that's considerably more than normal .What's going off?
There has been a large increase in perceived values in a pretty short time span, so that makes some revaluate hanging on to them (especially if there not being used much etc).

Cabs are a different car to the coupe ,flexible and creaky ,mine was SMG coupe and I loved it [the CSL is SMG for a reason] makes more sense on the open road than round town .Good E46's are now more than early e92's and they will only go one way .I now have an E93 335i cab with DCT as a daily when my wife lets me use it.

An E60 M5 replaced the noble as my everyday hack a few year later, another M car i still love (have 2 now).... BUT all the M cars I have had always felt average in performance because of the Noble lol.
Not sure i can or will ever replace the noble with something faster!
