Upgrade from BMW M3

docmatt

Not sure if you genuine or not but don’t rule out a C63 AMG. You can get 5-6 year old ones at a really good price.

If you want something new and different, with an involving drive, than as an alternative suggestion, how about a MX-5 RF?

OK, it will be a long way down on power compared to those cars you mention, but it has advantages:
- distinctly different, since you can get the roof (mostly) down
- a very willing naturally aspirated engine
- it handles well
- its much cheaper to buy and run

Another good choice prob one of the best track cars to start of with. However a bit low on power.... But thanks

This is the thread similar to this one://forums.m3cutters.co.uk/threads/new-user-bmw-m3-e46-looking-to-upgrade.205558/
One above is more on preemptive checks.

Scrap boy where do you love son?

How’s about you being your alleged m3 and I’ll bring my sportback. Dining club off the north circular road treacle.

I love treacle but I've only got a P1. Can I come play anyway?

Bought my car in Oct last year. Looking to change and open to advice, hence the forums.

Money saving forum. Don't change car every year, treacle, son, lad, chap. More advice, set a budget.

Can anyone get to Ace Cafe to get a pic of these lads with their M3 and 'sportback Audi'? Bring custard.

If someone does actually have an E36 M3, likes the rawness and wants to change, the answer would be, 'don't'. Anything after got 'less raw' from the V8 M3 onwards. Maybe an M2 or 1M. Or have you thought about an RX8?

this thread is just full of paranoia and condensation

Lots of hot air alright. Turn the aircon on or open the windows.

Ones worth seeing, ones not. Pretty sure I got the right one.
