Just bought an M3 cabriolet 2001 model. Have still got my Subaru but its for sale and the cash was goingtowards a short term loan used for the M3

The thing is the M3 is really boring. Not used to refinement and quiet as the M3 is both. I just feel like Im driving a V6 mondeo or something similar and feel so unconnected. I think Ive made a massive mistake turning my back on Subaru but think I'll sell the M3 as soon as the logbook comes back from swansea.

Has anyone else had a similar experience?....................... I never thougth I'd hear myself say an M3 is boring. It was great in the testdrive but to smooth and quiet for me and I crave the flat 4 Subaru soundtrack again

Erm...................anyone in the market for an M3 Cab great spec?

PM if you fancy a fully sorted RA. Any pics/spec of the M3?

I have just sold my scooby sti and bought an m3 e46 coupe,it does seem a bit to quiet compared to the scooby even now after ive put racing cats and milltek middle sector on it,i still love the scoobys and will be back one day.

E46 M3 is over-rated, doesn't stop, accelerate or corner very well unless the road is dry and smooth. Relieved to have got rid of it, and lost a packet on it in 6 months.

I can put my hand on my heart and say i am NEVER getting anything else other than a scooby again (funds permiting)

How you getting on with your 400bhp evo? I see your old scooby is for sale

john banks

Evo is fantastic. Only thing I don't like is the gearbox is notchy when cold. You would not believe how responsive a 2.0 engine can be running 400 BHP with just an exhaust, fuel pump and remap, feels like a TD04 on a Scooby that just pulls very hard and forever and feels totally unstressed doing it. Handling is fantastic, S-AYC is very fast acting on the late models and feels natural, safe and huge fun, far more so than the M3. Economy just as good as the Scooby/M3.

Have the brakes been uprated john ive heard that there not that good on evo's.You did'nt get on with your m3 then,must admit its hard to drive fast on british b-roads i need both lanes to hold it on the road.
