Default Looking to sell my M3 and get into a G35c or Z....

As the title says, Im looking to be selling my E46 M3 and get either a used G35coupe or Z....

Reason for doing so is that Im looking to buy a house and eliminating a car payment would be beneficial. Though I dont owe much left on the M3, I just rather not have a car payment and buy a used car outright..and then have some spare money for mods.

Just wanted to get some thoughts from you all about the debate between the Z (performance or track) and the G35 coupe.

-The car will never be stay stock..
-A backseat is not mandatory for me..
-Eventually the car will be FI..

Thanks in advance...

Will

Holy crap. Are you kidding me? Keep the M3. You said it's almost paid for anyways, right?

I have about 24 months left..and payments arent that bad...

but I also do tend to get bored with cars every 2 years or so....hense another reason for the interest to change cars

I also work for a tuner/manufactuer, so the modding bug is very prominent in my personality haha

You should trade in your Z or G and buy a M3 if you love them so much. No one forced you to buy it, you could have purchased a used M3 instead.

400 rwhp from a VQ is easier and cheaper than 350rwhp in a M3

Nice M3, but definitely Z. If you're into modding and performance I think the Z (with a little less weight than the G and more performance oriented) would be the right choice. If you want some luxury with your speed though go with the G.

Wholy crap that M3 is beautiful.. But a home always has FIRST priority!

When it all comes down they're both almost the same cars, same feel, same motor. It just comes down to which would you rather have in terms of looks. Good luck!

Dunno whats so great about the looks on the m3, looks like a average sedan with a after market hood.

I think the three letters bmw and most know it costs to much make people sway in there opinion, status wont make sexy.

But then again i guess if i all of a sudden get rich ill be sexy to a lot of woman ahhaha.

I had a bimmer, i loved it, and it was modded. I love my z however and get waaaaaay more attention. I say go wiht the z, especially if your going to be performance oriented.
