If you ever had to replace your e46 M3

[cobra]

I like the looks of the new RS3. Anyone driven one?

[Mayan-Viking]

GT3 or R8 V10 MT?

I've driven both. Very different but both have their respective benefits. I can make the case either way. In terms of owning a rare commodity, which holds the value best as they age? Should that question even matter?

I bought a 2021 STI new, to replace a daily driver Camry I had. For a while, I thought I'd sell the M3 and the STI would "replace" it. Now, the STI is likely going for sale. The more the M3--and myself--age, the more I really appreciate the car. STI is great, but, not a replacement. For the longest time I would say I'd replace the M3 with some sort of P-car, but, with pricing where it is, it's likely not going to happen. The R8 is an interesting proposition, and some of the RS cars, but where I"m at, I don't want to re-learn some new vehicle, or pay the premium.

I’m on my third E46 M3 and I still think that it a classic. But I would love to experience a Aston Martin DB9 coupe. I think that it is one of the sexiest cars on the road. Maybe one day.

At the crazy prices - the gap to an M2 isn't much. Tempting. I like the gen 1 M2, sounds better than the m3 motor.

996 GT3 or GT4 but they are 3x the price of my e46 and I don't think they are 3x the car. The e46 M3 really checks all the boxes for me.

I do acknowledge the GT3 will appreciate significantly in the 10 years...

Ive had to do it twice. Ended up with another E46 M3 lol

[Toby22]

This! Very underrated car the GT4 imo

Every YouTuber bought one. Every review said it’s amazing. They’re selling like crazy. Far from underrated lol

wish something like that was possible from s54 unfortunately not 🙁. And it’s still revs to 8k sounds insane, s54 has really nothing on this not the sound csl airbox definitely not power, only advantage is that’s it’s cheaper.

With the very twisty roads around me, I don't need anything more than what the S54 offers. I have followed GT350Rs, GT4s and GT3, power doesn't mean anything when you don't have a straight road to use it.

Buddies 450whp Evo 9, my previous M3 only have a rear muffler.

Did anyone mention a CSL manual conversion? How about the E36 M3 LTW, Euro GT, or, even better, the AC Schnitzer CLS I/II.

I would just get a 2wd 911 at this point.

I disagree. I don’t find the S54 lacking in power and I love the way it sounds. Wouldn’t trade it for anything.

For me it’s definitely Gt4 although I like to have both at the same time 😁. For those that don’t Gt4 Becuase it’s in the shadow off Gt3 well now there’s an option you can upgrade to GT4.5 by Demann Motorsport and you can leave any Gt3 in the dust 😉🏎

I wouldn't say "any" GT3. GT3/RS/R owners can also take their cars to DeMan 😎 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIbRnqJywzo
