The arguments here are as entertaining as those on foreign policy, economics, and religion. Except these arguments are using less knowledge and experience.

I dont think m3 has ceramic rotors.. nor is it an exotic..

There are so many iterations of the M3 that it's unfair to judge based on only one. unless that one is the M3 CSL. If they had actually built it…..

7 speed DCT transmission that shifts faster than a Ferrari.
Carbon roof to drop the center of gravity.
Sub 3500lbs weight
Ceramic brake optional

And a price of $130k or so. If it had actually been released, that is.
:(

It's still a killer car. The Germans really know how to put performance in a package that doesn't look like a performer.

:D

Do want.

Yeah!

What's wrong with the R8?

Talking maintenance wise, they all cost tonnes of money when you get into super germanness.

Clunking is for retards.

Didn't you move to some far away land where it is unsafe to drive never to be seen or heard from again?

Why are you here talking about cars? :)

emmmm….

or did you mean not released in NA? In that case, never mind. And the R8 (with the V8, not the V10 version) is (surprisingly) marginally cheaper to maintain than an M car. None of those is cheap though. Saying that, the OE brembos on the Nissan 350z are stratospherically expensive to replace. My friend got quoted 1000 EUR for new pads and rotors at a dealer. Went on to upgrade the brakes, cost him roughly the same…

one of the guys I work with has a 2011 M3, it's fast, it's cool, etc etc. But any time you need any work on it you get fucked so hard. 4k for brake shoes? Battery replacements are ridiculous too. On the flip side he hates it and has his eye on an R8 now.

there's this one asian guy in the townhouse complex who has a fat ass R8 and somehow manages to park it in the TINY condo garage.. watched him do it without scratching anything, barely 2 inches on either side
