Are you considering 370z?

Thanks
I am loving mine. I had a 335 before (and was chipped too) but i would never take the 335 over the M (steering, handling, throttle response, suspension, chassis, transmission, quality, etc.) Mine is a manual though.

In a 335 u get a lot of low end but once u hit 5k RPM the pull dies down for sure. in the M3 it's a slow car until u hit 4-5k RPM then it becomes very quick. It might not feel as fast as it is, the speedometer will keep jumping very quickly but u dont feel the pull u feel in turbo. unless ur like me u like to do 3rd gear pulls on the freeway from 80 to 110 mph.

the problem on test drives is they wont let u rev past 5k RPM. so hook up with ur local BMW group and have them show u around. the car feels amazing. The engine is a masterpiece for real. response is crazy on that thing! M3post.com is an awesome place for info and meets

I need a small quick car that's a bit fun. im putting too many miles on my car and i have to travel for work, so i thought of picking something up. I looked into Mini S, STi, S2000, 350Z, 370Z, Z4M and i have a few more on my list like Evo X. The 370Z is one of my top choices but the lease deals right now are looking too close to Z4M which is one of my favorites too (except it's very rare now). But then i have this inner-struggle coz i think the STi is the most practical and since i live out of my car i need a trunk + i snowboard a lot.
