//M Roadster, no way you can compare an //M Roadster with an e36 M3.

Sporty sporty.

e36, sorry. e46 is out of my price range and i really prefer the e36 to it.

Say what?!?!

An //M Roadster and //M Coupe start at $52K, and a new e46 M3, is $49,600. Unless you're getting a used M3, which is around $30K.

I don't understand. Are you going to lease these cars?

**Hoppy** · 04-09-2006, 02:04 PM

ya, e36 is way too old to be in this comparison. not to mention its an e36.

**SHAHAB323IS** · 04-09-2006, 02:05 PM

**Longhairedhippy** · 04-09-2006, 03:27 PM

my vote is coupe

**doughboyea** · 04-09-2006, 07:05 PM

aside from performance, the e36 just looks a hell of a lot better, M coupe just looks like a shoe...just my opinion

**doughboyea** · 04-09-2006, 08:50 PM

thanks rooz.

i was talking the e36/7 m roadster with the S52 engine and the e36/8 m coupe with the S52 engine. the e46 m3 and the new z4m's are way out of my price range. perhaps when i graduate.

Ohhhhh now you tell us.

Storamin · 04-10-2006, 03:10 PM

why wouldn't you expect it? i said earlier that i was going to go with an S52 engine instead of the S54 engine. The new Mz's have the S54 engine while the older ones had the S52 and then detuned S54 later on in their life cycle.
