-> I've been thinking replacing an S2K to reduce my monthly payment (USD$555.56/month on more than a year left on payments). Is it worth replacing?
Keep my 2004 Honda AP2 S2000? (yup, this is 'Silvie')
OR
Should I get a 2004-2006 BMW E46 M3? (will be named 'Trina')
This one is in Florida
This one is in Michigan
-> The M3 that I'm looking for must have the following:
- Has to be between 2003-2006
- 6-Speed Manual (no SMG please!)
- Less than USD$20K
- Has to have either Black or Gray interior
- Around 120K miles/193K km or less
^ I also considering on purchasing any extended warranty and maintenance programs to alieviate the fear to German car ownership. I would think even with these additional packages, the M3 will cost less compared to the one I'm paying on my S2K...and I think the M3 is more of a car too.
-> But before I select the right one, I have to do these procedures:
- Do a Pre-Purchase Inspection (PPI#1 and/or PPI#2) by BMW
- Check for oil leaks
- Double check rear subframe
-> Is the E46 a worthy upgrade? Are the parts costs the same? And I'm keeping it stock, yup no Jersey Shore douchebaggery on this M3. And might not track it.
-> Or should I consider other alternatives? Like the fun GTO 6.0/VZ Monaro or should I go back to Subaru with a '07 STi?
