Agreed. We all have varied ideas about which factors are most important in our decision making including which car to drive. Ideally I wouldn't be limited to just one performance car but a whole slew of them. I'm often tempted by the gtr, gt3, well almost any modern porsche and also even z06s and boss mustangs. I couldn't fault anyone for choosing the cars we all covet. If you were on here holding up the scion tc as a better car than an M3 then I would have issue.

I'd probably be proud to own a gtr if I lived in North Dakota too.

Honestly, like some people said, you only live once, so you should do whatever you can to enjoy it the most, and that's why I finally made up my mind on the M3.

I would love to get a GT-R if but that's not a very good idea based on my current financial situation. But if the financial market totally crashes like it did in late 2008 and early 2009, I might be able to do it, lol.

Sometimes you have to go with what your heart tells you to do not your brain, and you will find investing in your happiness is well worth it.

Just curious, are you a stripper? I was just on CNN, reading about how they are making $2000 a night from all the oil guys coming from out of town in with no idea what to do with their money.

Yeah that's it. I'm a 46 year old male stripper that appeals to those closet case oil men and commutes 800 miles a day from Fargo to Williston and back(that's why I need a really fast car).

when the 12' GTR depreciates abit more, I will be be selling the M3 for the GTR!......GTR is the best bang for buck as far as performance...initially I didnt like the looks but it is growing on me now...forget practicality, the GTR is a supercar in fancy sportscar price range...who cares if its a Nissan.

Yeah right. You just want this thread to go for another year. I have gtr, gt3, cayman r, mustang boss, and a million other pangs every day. Why can't we just have everything we want? Park place still has a gtr and gt3 maybe we can get a 2 for one deal.
