Either of the new Cadillac blackwings, in stick. The spiritual successor to the e90 M3.
If not that, cayman GTS, Elise, etc. |

Buy a used Sports Car. Brand new cars from the dealership are a ripoff and are getting more and more unreliable. Try to get a special edition with extra goodies and to keep its value.
Audi R8 Porsche 911 997.2 GTS or Turbo Porsche 911 997.2 GT3 Porsche 718 GT4 Mercedes AMG C63 Lexus IS-F Lexus IS 500 F-Sport Nissan GT-R R35 (NISMO Godzilla) Shelby Mustang GT350R Basically anything the @TheStraightPipes like. Cheers |

Good luck getting one. My coworker has been on the CT5 Blackwing order list since day 1 and just found out he can get an allocation IF he declines any carbon options which are still backordered.

Get another e92 m3 in a different color. Or another one in the same color.

But the c8 z06... mid engined, flat planed v8, with american part prices, with a not exotic cost? I suddenly care. I look forward to being able to test one to see how well it is executed in real life. |

F82 M4 GTS or CS would be my pick.

Bumping an old thread…
For me, a replacement to e92 M3 has to have: NA V8 that feels special & sounds great. Manual transmission. Under $80,000. Decent visibility & at least average ingress/egress for daily drivability. I wonder what fits the bill.. |

Actually AM V8 is a good suggestion.. just not as confident about being able to work on it compared to the M3. There’s not as many DIY resources and reasonably priced parts availability for AM, red pants.lol is a good resource for DIY guys though! Was 33 when I got my first BMW & joined the forum, it’s been a while.. |

If money isn't a big issue 991 Turbo or GT3
honorable mention R8 V10. Love F8Xs and G8Xs as well but wouldn't trade my v8 for either |

There is no upgrade unless you are prepared to spend a decent amount of money. However if money was not an obstacle, and peak manual v8 was what I was after, the answer for me would probably be a manual swapped Ferrari 458 Itallia. Manual swaps on older Ferraris are becoming alot more common, and these are OEM level fit and finish. It also makes an interesting value proposition on the F430. The manual F430 is way more expensive than the single clutch automated manual version is. However, now you can buy an automatic and manual swap it for a fraction of the cost of a real manual f430. |

I am getting sick of fancy cars. My inner hillbilly wants to get out and walk around, but he's still practical and demands four doors and some usable cargo space
