How many of you owned a M3 before their GT3?
#137
I had both a e92 and e46 track car. The e46 was more enjoyable and just as fast as the e92 on the track. The e92 is just too heavy for track use IMHO.
Currently I own an e92 M3 and I am trying to figure out whether I want to turn it into an all out track car since its paid for and I already have a ton of track focussed mods on the car. I know they are heavy, but it could be a great toy for me and my friends to go racing in.
I grew up with Porsches and I've been completely obsessed with GT3s since I first rode in a 996.2 in college. I made a deal with myself when I went to work with my current company back when I was 25 that I would buy a GT3 by my 30th birthday (I'm 28 now). Hope to be going after a 7.2 GT3 in the next year and a half.
EDIT: I should also add that my M3 now has 56k miles as it has been my DD since I bought it with 3k miles in September of 2008. I don't think I'll be able to get much for the car, hence my toying with the idea of turning it into a fully caged track car.

Earlier in this thread I posted I owned a few M3's and will hopefully be owning a GT3 soon. I now own a 996GT3 and could not be any happier (I have had the car for an hour of ownership).

Owned a 2005 M3 w/Comp Package and then owned a 2011 M3 w/Comp Package before I picked up the GT3.

Currently own a 2008 E90 M3. Wonderful daily driver for the wife. It pretty much does everything well, but a little chubby for the track (in stock form), as others have described.
