How long have you owned an M3?

Was wondering how long have you kept your M3? Would like to see if the majority of buyers are either leasers or owners or would like to see the trend on how loyal they are to the M3.

I am a first time M3 owner and bought the car new in 2010. Only owner and still own it to this day. In fact, the m3 is the longest I have owned any car.

I bought my E46 in 2001 and kept it for almost 7 years when I traded it for my E92 in 2008. I will have owned my E92 for a little over 6 years when I trade it for an F82 this summer .

Impressive! Ever owned/driven an E30? Which generation is your favorite?

Thoughts on the the F8x?

In a month it'll be 2 years. My 2 previous cars were an old Saturn and a 2001 Subaru Forester. I'll be daily driving the M3 for a long long time. This is the perfect car for me.

BMW is making the choice not that hard either. I'd almost rather have a M235i than an M4.
