I think I will eventually get a 4runner. I love the e46 M3 and was thinking of getting one. My friend has one and kind of test drove it today.

But there are are couple of things I really loved about the Z that the M does not have that I am used to. Steering feel and torque. The Z's steering is much more mechanical feeling, I knew exactly what the tires were doing. Its probably the most important thing to me. The torque wasn't as great in the M3 and I didn't expect it to be a torquey engine anyway. But, that engine loves to rev and it feels great on the top end! haha.

I also was looking at used e90 m3's...but I dont know if I would like to spend so much money on a car. I'll just save my money for the day I can get a Porsche 997.2 GT3/RS or a 996 GT3!
