E93 M3 or Porsche C2?

Thought OT would be better than anywhere else... free feel to move/delete etc as you please mods.

$61,998
10k miles

Same price.
Same year.

However, M3 has free maintenance and 10k less miles; Porsche maintenance (from what I've read) isn't great, but not all that bad either.

Similarly equipped.

Porsche will out-handle the M3 as well as beat it on a straight; but it's not a hard top vert.
M3 rear seats are usable, Porsche's are not.
M3 has more storage room.

FWIW, Porsche also gets much better MPG.

I've been driving a BMW for about 18 months...(between the 335i and the Z4).
Owned a 996 Porsche Turbo prior...

I can find a used 09 GTR with 10k or less miles for around the same price... but that car's maintenance isn't pretty...

Decisions decisions..
