welcome to the club dude.
well,it all depends on wht ur actually after....
if u want speed to go with the executive look thn i suggest the m5.....
but if u want speed to go with bling thn its the m3 for u.....

both hav different driving characteristics and it all depends also on if u want a 2 dr or a 4dr???

in terms of lower initial cost, lower subsequent cost, lower depreciation, lower maintenance cost, lower road tax cost, lower fuel cost etc, m3.

for everything else, m5.

is cost a bigger incentive than emotion for you? are you the kind that mimick the sound of revving engines when you run up the stairs at home as a kid? are you the kind that particularly enjoy washing your car yourself for the reward afterwards-the chance to drive 10/10s after a wash to dry her out nicely? the type that'd cook and eat in so you can save for the brembo monoblocs 10 months later?

if answer is all yes, that's a necessary but insufficient condition to go for the m5.

the final hurdle where most falter then, comes back to cost.

[vladd_tappish]

Ya i would like to have Bill Gates wealth. Thk you need to stick to the topic.

 

[The Necessary]

Which M3 and which M5?

The M3 (in general) would be better on track, whilst the M5 (also, in general) better at straight line speed/dragging.

 

[f8.]

hey does anyone know how the e46 m3 fare against the e60 m5 around the ring?

 

[The Necessary]

It probably is slower around the ring than the M5.

But an enjoyable track car is not determined entirely by its lap times; else all we'd be driving are Caterham 7s, and/or its derivatives, on track.

 

[3er]

The M3 for selfish drives or at the most one other passenger (and it better be a girl!)

The M5 for the family man who hasnt grown out of his boyhood dreams.

Either one will plaster a grin on your face. Enjoy!

 

[mini_jeff67]

M5 is more practical, and at the same time fulfills the basic need... for speed! Just my dua puluh sen!

[Alvin]

Dude

A little harsh here but you really should learn more about life & stop messing with peoples time & effort. Stop posting such things please. Maybe you should have kept your wira & do what a lot of people do. Wiralution it!

Geeezzzz!!! We get all sort dont we.

 

[The Necessary]

Dudes, why are you guys being so mean to choc?

Do you want to give the BMW club a bad name?!

Eh, be nice to the newbie la! Maybe one day he'll get a Lambo and whoop all your sorry a.sses!

You guys are such a bunch of p.ricks la.

[Alvin]

We are nice but at least say from beginning. Then people will know how to reply or help. Misleading the members is worst.

If he does get a lambo, i'm glad for him & be proud to say that he whoop my a.ss.

Misleading or not, I expected more from a BMW driver! Shame on you!!!
