Living in Seattle? Easy choice ... Evo all the way. M3 sucks in wet weather, Evo dominates almost anything in the wet - not to mention new vs. used. Always go new if they're at a similar price. And don't buy a used Evo unless you KNOW where it came from and what it's been through.

Get the MR since you have enough cash. I have one. It's ride is comfortable as good as the G35 sedan w. sport-package (my sister have one) and the performance is way beyond. It's also very reliable too, don't let other people comment about other Mitsubishi pool you. I drove it very hard but it's still running like new after a almost a year.

M3 means expensive maintenance.....high insurance....yuppy status.

G35.....slow....not very sporty at all.....sweet ride but kind of a poser status.

EVO....a drivers car that is functional and faily easy on the pocket book.

Get what you want and what makes you the most happy. Get the car that puts the biggest smile on your face because the only one paying for the car is going to be you. Regardless of how the road conditions are if you love the car you'll tolerate all sorts of conditions ... Don't be one of those guys who says woulda shoulda coulda .... Life is too short for regrets ....

Maybe this would fit the bill. As far as regrets, years ago I had a friend who basically bought a Corvette using a years worth of salary. I used the same money to buy a rental property and kept my old toyota. Regret is the last thing I feel. They're only cars.

I love you guys!!!

WoW! Once again

I am thinking again and again.. about what I would buy

I used to have

94 Integra GSR (Stolen)

93 Civic HB (B18C5 in it)(Sold)

96 Honda Del Sol (Sold right after I got it)

99 Audi A4 2.8(**** this thing breaks down.. )

So here I am.

I don't want stripted car like Civic HB because it didn't have power window,

no power at all..

Also as for former Honda guy, I don't want any unwanted attention from Cops.

I don't street race but, I got pulled over for no reason with Civic HB, and Integra GSR..

So how attractive is Evo, regarding Cops?

Thanx again~!

from the cars that you've ownd, you sound like an enthusiast.. or however u spell it. The M3 will be boaring for you.. plus, the evo smokes up on the m3 in just about everything.. and you could really destroy it with a few hundred dollars in mods.

if it were me in your shoes.. i'd get the evo.. hands down

by the way, i love g35's..

Sorry to let you know what you hope not to hear. YES! The EVO does attract the popos.
