And it's not like I'm saying it's beastly in stock form. I'm specifically talking about a modded car like theirs.

Maybe we just look at beastly differently. Hanging with stock cars that you are in the price range of with mods is not very impressive to me.

We do. I think an NA 3.7L V6 running those kinds of numbers is beastly. It's simply impressive, considering we had supercars not too long ago running those figures.

See, for 50 grand, I'd rather have something with a warranty, or something much faster.

For under 100k, I don't see how one could go wrong with an M3. Oh, I'm sorry, wrong thread.

What would you get for $50k?

Don't apologize, you're absolutely correct. It is the best bang for buck supercar under $100k

I would buy an M3, tbh.

I'd buy a 1 M.

For which solution?

You could get a supercharged 5.0 for speed, a tuned 335, or buy a z and my old s2k...

A good all around car. Say you were to have one car after you move and you had $50k to spend, what would YOU get?

There is no doubting the M3. It pwns all when it comes to bang for buck

dark_nismo · 05-27-2011, 08:05 PM

My next car will be the upcoming M3.. all black, under warranty, fast beauty! For now my slightly modded 370z Nismo is it for me...
but the only way to know the answer to the question originally posted is to run both cars 10x and see who comes on top more..
slightly modded 370z vs e92 M3
I place my money on the M3! just my .02

The thing that I would hate about buying any high end luxury (brand) car brand new is how quickly its value tanks. This is especially true for the more expensive, higher performance models. That's why I would never buy one new, I would get one slightly used and covered with an extended warranty if I was to get one

jnaut · 05-27-2011, 08:22 PM

the m3 is not the fast, as one wanted a piece of my z. Its was one of those fancy automatics... he was pissed/surprised. It has a good look but kinda dated. 80k new 1 yr old 50k no thanks for that resale value...

plus for 65k ill take the cts-v...rollin 5 deep with550 hp yes plz
