2011 m3 coupe or 2015 nismo tech ? , both mt

OP, the reason that M3 is available is that smart people dump their BMWs at 30k miles.

Actually, it's probably because BMW does so many leases and around 30K is usually a pretty standard mileage allowance. So, in this case, you get a car with low mileage, that you know was taken care of because of the free maintenance they provide on new vehicles. I would go with the M3. More power, a back seat (even if it is small, its a practical thing to have), the V8 sound, and in my opinion, more fun to drive.

So, the car that was unreliable to begin with gets beat like a dog for 30k miles? And you're recommending he buy it? Wow.

Actually, the BMW E92 M3 is one of the most reliable cars BMW ever built. As a matter of fact, We actually have an employee on staff with an '11 M3 with DCT. He beats the living crap out of the car all day every day. Drives it harder than 95% of M3 owners. 71k on the clock. He's finally getting to use his extended warranty. For his amp and subwoofer. Can't break the actual car, but he did blow up the stereo. #winning.

Not to BMW-bash, because the few I've owned/had the pleasure of driving have been very impressive cars. But.. isn't this sorta like saying you won on "Biggest Loser?"

You do realize that winning the biggest loser gets you a quarter of a million dollars, and probably add a decade onto your life right?? Ill take that prize! hahaha

Yeah, but your $250,000 will go mostly to fixing your BMW. And skin removal.

Really? As reliable as an old Jaguar? LOOOOOOL.

The V8 M3s have bearing issues, it's pretty prevalent too...


The word "BMW" and "reliable" should not be in the same sentence ever... Unless we're saying "A Toyota is reliable, unlike a BMW, which is prone to break at 50k miles."
