Pfft too high at 40k I could get a brand new loaded G37S, that will spank that E46. BMW's are too expensive, I would go Lexus or Infiniti they are FTW.
Depends on where you look. I've seen most E46's hover around $12,000 to $25,000. The E46 M3 is gonna cost more obviously, but it's still a great car with a liquid smooth 3.2-litre straight six that won International Engine of the Year a few times. Hell, it can even keep up with the Audi RS4.
As for Lexus and Infiniti, they're just overpriced Toyotas and Nissans in my opinion. The G35 Coupe is nice, but you could easily get the 350Z for cheaper with pretty much the same performance. As for Lexus...meh, all they have is the IS-F which is pretty fast, but hell...that car has so many fake things that I would rather just pay a little extra for the E92 M3. Form AND function for a little more.
Besides, the steering in Japanese cars are too light. Fine for daily driving, but if you're a petrolhead who likes to go on the occasional spirited drive, it just doesn't feel as good.
