So I've always like the M3 but wtf? We were paving next to one of CO's high-end dealerships so i sauntered over there to browse around. Saw a new 4-door M3, took a look at the sticker price and WTF!? $74,500? I know its a great car, but is it, 75 grand great?

Wow, that's pretty expensive! But yeah, everything you read about the car, it's "perfect." Sometimes I get sick reading all the automotive journalists ooh-ing and aah-ing over the car. It's not surprising BMW would jack up the price.

Well, you figure 2 more cylinders--that's gotta be at least another 10 grand right there....

i drove the M6. and i have never been a fan of big cars. i dont really like BMW's or Mercedes. but damn, that car had me talking about it non-stop for 2 weeks! Amazing car. worth every penny. i also drive the s63 AMG. also, another WOW! crazy germans...



when i compare those heavy luxury cars to the 911 carrera S/cayman S i drove around, porsche has some work to do. ( i havnt driven any GT porshces)
