Though, your color is the second best. ;D

Ironically, it's probably my least favorite M3

However, for the price, it just cannot be beat. It handles amazing with the mods I have, is cheap to run and insure, will run 200k+ miles no problem if you take care of it, and still has plenty of power to scoot.

I don't plan on selling mine any time soon.

More importantly, only the e46 M3 (and CSL by extension) can pull off the CSL trunk without looking like it's trying too hard. I'm not sure about the M4 as I've never seen an M4 with a CSL trunk in real life.

You're not the only one. I get yelled at all the time for saying anything remotely negative about god's chariot. Having said that, I do love the intake noise the CSL makes, and the exhaust rasp can be toned down.

I hope eventually can do the same with the current M3/4.
