Had an 03 g35 coupe back in the day (Ivory pearl with gold SF challenges). sold it for an m3 and s2000. Now I think its time to go back to the car I loved.

guess i'll be hanging around here more often now lol

I'm still kinda open to the year and whether I want to get a brand new one or a slightly used.

I want a white exterior with the sport package for sure. I would also like to have a automatic. Been driving manuals for a long time. I think its time to cruise.

Sport and Premium are the only packages I care for. I wonder what kind of deal I can get for an 09. I kinda wanna stay under 40k.

If you can find an 09 with white-sports-premium, probably around $35k.

it was an e46 m3 laguna blue and 2002 s2k white with red interior


The power on the m3 is definitely fun, but the little interior and electrical problems I had was a PAIN. I got rid of it.

The s2k is a fun car to drive, but the power is definitely not efficient for everyday driving. You really have to gun it to feel the car move.

I choose the g35 over both

Wow... the Laguna is my favorite color on the E46's.... and the white/red is my favorite color combo on the S2k! lol. You, sir, have good taste! Laguna blue is one of the most beautiful colors .... works so well on the E46 M3, but it wouldn't work on most cars. My dad's friend picked up a used S2K in Florida and him and my dad drove it back.... he only paid like $12k or $13k or something ridiculous!

I've driven it a few times... pretty nice car, but way too small for me (I'm 6 foot 2). She slides well though! haha.

Definitely a smart move on your behalf

Almost 2 years with the G now, I'd buy her again if I were to do it all over again

Both the M3 and the GTR are double the price of a fully loaded G37 here, so trust me, I would
