I got rid of my M3 four times!
1) I replaced my E90 M3 with Focus RS...but gave the M3 to my wife as her commuter.
2) The Focus wore me out. I sold it and I purchased a CTS-V wagon instead. The V was the replacement to the replacement (Focus RS) of the M3. The V is a completely different beast from the M3, and equally excellent but in different areas. (At this point my wife was still commuting in the M3.)
3) Eventually, we decided to replace my wife's M3 commuter with a Tesla Model 3. The gas and maintenance on the M3 was killer, the Tesla costs pennies on the dollar to run. In came the Tesla...and I kept the M3 as a track car!
4) I got the itch for a 2-door coupe as a weekend whip and track car, so the M3 was finally sold...for real! It is replaced with an AMG GT S. The GT S is awesome in many ways...yet I still think fondly of the M3, and find its engine more special. Maybe I'll own another one someday!
