It will be a very different car from the 335. The feel and powerband of a high revving small displacement V8 is so completely different from a tt-6. The M3 has very much a Jekyl and Hyde personality. It is very docile at low rpms, but when you push it, it is a beast. And you will need to push it to extract the performance. Still, it is quite an intoxicating experience when you do.
You talk about the next gen M3. Well it likely won't be here before 2014, and then you will be looking at shelling out $$$$ for a new car and a new model which will likely not sell below MSRP, for the first year anyway. This last point is really the most important factor to consider in your circumstance.

I edited my original post - I'm talking about waiting for the F32 335i/435i (whatever the next coupe will be called). That's what I'd get next if I held onto my E92.
