I say the M3, just cus with the other domestics, (and nothin against domestics.....well...kinda, but...) you may not be so happy with the "Fit and finish" quality and or details. The Supra could be cool however.

M3 = Expensive to maintain. but those things are pretty freakin awesome! if u do the work your self, wont be bad. just my 2cents

P.S. how 'bout a pole?!?

The Z06 would not make a good everday car, been there done that with a Vette.....it get's old and mine wasn't even a daily driver. No way in hell I could have driven it everyday.

03 cobra. Lower mileage and use that extra cash to mod the hell out of it.

Seems like you want something crazy fast. M3 wont get you into the 12s that easy.


i would look for a used S4 if you want something thats wicked quick.

Thats is why i am kind of leaning towards a cobra, because i can mod it and get it into low 12's or high 11's pretty easy, and if i get a M3 i would have to leave it basically stock because you don't pick up much with mods, and the supra is 10yrs old with 80k miles

I had the Acura for 1 1/2 years

Chevy Aveo. Surprisingly big inside. Weighs light, so if you modded it, the power-to-weight ratio would be amazing.

Sti is an all around awesome car I think!!! Anything European is high maintenance. Supra; common now; yeah the car is untouchable, blah, blah, blah, but who in their right mind spends close to 30 g's on 80k plus mileage car??? Not worth it, unless you're that hardcore. I don't think any American muscle car is suitable for daily driving.

If you go with the 03' Cobra, just prepare for Ford's quality...or lack there of! But they've made alot of improvements over the years, so it may be straight, especially with the new Cobras! They're bada$$!

I've always loved the M3's, and there are mods, however everything will be VERY expensive, and the car itself is expensive to maintain!

Good luck!

dont cut corners bro the M3 is always classified as a true sports car and represents in almost any form

I say do the M and dont even look at anything thing else

the M3 almost went head to head with a clk 55 at the drags and I dont even want to know what it would do to it at the tracks

Naw but out of those options I'd choose the M3 because they're just straight pimp man.

Whatever you do don't buy the Supra. 80,000 miles + turbo = potential nightmare.

I'd go for the Z06 or if you're looking to mod the car just a regular 'vette will do.

you should go will a 91-95 nsx, Ive seen them sell between 21-30k depending on mileage and condition and that car will turn more heads than any of the other cars and the styling is timeless and you get the best built engine honda has ever made, the nsx has it all and now if is affordable

of the cars listed, M3....downsides IMO, the ride is too rough for me for daily driving and I see a lot of them on the road.

80,000 miles on a 2jzgte is nothing. I have several friends from the supra clubs that have over 160k+ and runs like a champ. Those motors can hold up to 700hp on stock bottom end. Doubt any M3 stock motor that can handle that. Not knocking on the M3 or anything.. Early M3s were known to blow motors left and right. Not sure if they fixed that prob yet. There is just nothing out there can match the looks on a Supra in my opinion.
