Factoring that for maintenance sounds right. Figure a couple hundred for oil changes + routine maintenance. U buying new, CPO, or used?

I will get new M3 if not, GT3 less than 10k miles on it.
I will have to see the actual spec of M3 before I make a decision because both M and GT3 are my dream cars and want to own them both.

M sounds right for my age because I still have more than half a century to live and it will probably a better idea to invest for future.
If I ever lucked out later on, hopefully drive GT3 before my 50's.

Well, it sounds you're on the right footing with the earnings power you've got now; just keep your head on straight, work hard (play hard too!), and keep your priorities straight, and you've a good chance to driving a GT3 WELL before then.

One point I must make: you're dual income right now, but I'm sure discussions on raising your kids will come up, and it'll come down to your preferences. My wife and I came up to this crossroads awhile ago, and talked about her leaving the workforce and becoming a full time mom. It's a decision that I don't regret (except for when I talk about the cars we drive. ). I'm sure you'll both come to a decision that suits you both (We're single income, but I know a lot of DIMK [Dual Income, Married with Kids], that work out their schedules quite well - and one of the bubbas drives a GT2 *cry* ).

Good luck, and enjoy that M!
