great, smooth.... commuter car. very comfortable, but wasn't nearly as special as the 911 experience and i gotta say the 911 gets WAAAAY more attn and i thought the m3 attracted a great deal.

i love the way the e46 m3 looks. such a bulldog stance. square. i wouldn't mind have a cab version of it with the same wheels and suspension i had on mine. would look insane.
Ok, since we're doing this, here was mine:

dude jay, with that 4-5% difference, i would HIGHLY recommend changing out those rear tires... every inch you drive your car you're killing your front differitial

and that's like a $5,000+ repair bill

Joe, I think I saw your old M3 today (if you traded it in recently) when I went to pick mine up. It was parked in front of my C4S.

Anyway, here's my old M3 and my new C4S:



2009 C4S right off the truck!



More pics this weekend if it's sunny and after I detail it again.
