It depends on the mileage and price... But the Competition package really sharpens the M3s personality.

It will be nice to have two M3s. Hold on to them and when you can get an E30 and E36 M3!

i am from puerto rico, it is 2006, it has 19k miles, and the price is higher than the state´s bacause it is suppose to pay 38% of taxes at the port of entry if i was going to import it from the states, i bought it to bmw financial services in puerto rico. the car is like new, i'm in love with it.

Very nice! Not sure why you'd want two vehicles so similar, though. I prefer something different like an SUV or truck for a second car.

no SUV or truck for me - maybe a sporty hatchback...... but once you drive the E92 you might as well sell the E46. the e92 is sooooooo much better.

That is a fantastic car. My buddy had one identical to that one, and it was undoubtedly the easiest fast car to drive that has a manual tranny, RWD.

+1

I think once you have both, you'll quickly start driving the E92 more and eventually drive the E46 less and less. I have now owned both M3's and the E92 IMHO is amazingly so much better the the E46. In the end, if you can afford both then keep the it.

Please post an update after you have both in your possesion for a while and let us know which one you drive more.

Thanks

Nice car BTW....

Im surprised noone noticed yet or mentioned this yet...
What happened to the front right reflector?
Half of it is missing, was it damaged on the front bumper near this reflector?
