mjposner,
Thanks for your honest, subjective and detailed feedback. People should drive what they want for the reasons they want. As my wife would say.....for the average driver they will never use half the cars capability on the street....me included. When we drove it at the performance center and really pushed the car it shined.....it does not feel that way on the daily streets and does feel a bit soft....but then I am not beating the shit out of it like i did on the short track.

I like it but have to admit sometimes whis I had a newer M3 but I wanted a car now and wanted a 2 door. There will always be a draw to the M but mine is mainly the sound, wide body look and the idea it is a true M. That was not enough to push me into the 70k range or buy 2nd hand...I like the warranty coverage on the new car.

Now if I still lived in Cal and could run the car up Palomar mtn or other mtn runs each weekend I might have gone a different course but I am in Charlotte and needed a sporty grocery fetcher.

I continue to enjoy the bantering......keep it going.

mjposner...enjoy your M3 and throw some pics up in this thread
