                The M3 is a high miler, 80k kilometres (that's 50k miles) and I can probably get it for CDN$33,000 - $34k + 8% sales tax.. so that's $35640 - $36720.

                The Z06 has only 14k miles (it's a US car.. that's 22,400 Kms) and the price is US$30k. I can get an exchange rate of about 0.86 on the dollar, and it costs 6% GST + $200 to import into canada. Its located in Philly, so add $100 woth of gas for a grand total of about $37,300.

                      A Corvette Z06 isn't your every day run of the mill Chevy, and infact if anything does go wrong they are incredibly cheap to fix an maintain because of widely available parts, etc.

                      BMWs are notoriously unreliable and parts / labour on them is expensive. Im much more nervous about a 6 year old BMW than I am about the Z06 tbh.

                            What do you want the car for?
                            The vette will dominate the M3 in all performance aspects. But the M3 will ride nicer and have a nicer interier, and seat more then 2.
                            Coming Soon!

                              I would take the Vette hands down, and getting them from the states makes them cheap even with very low milage.
                              Dont foget to give the boarder 72 hours notice of you crossing otherwise your going to sit in their parking lot for 72 hours. There is also a 100 dollar AC fee, and I think 80 dollar RIV fee.
                              I brought a pair of Camaro's up a couple years ago.

                                      Ya the total import fee is $202 and the market for vettes in the US is alot more broad than in canada, I will save $5k or more by importing.
                                      I died.

                                        To be honest - Im in the market for a Z06. The M3 being in the same price range means I have to do due dilligence and at least consider it. I have no need for a back seat really, practicality is about 50th on my list of considerations.

                                        I can fit a hockey bag in the Z06 truck and it has a pass through for hockey sticks - that's all that really matters to me
                                        I died.

                                          id be careful buying either of these used since you know that owners of such cars drive them hard (Usually)

                                          do you get any warranties with either???

                                                Tires are a good indication of this - the vette is rolling on the original rubber.. and there's still quite a bit left. The part that is most susceptible to damage under hard driving is the transmission - the reality is when buying a used car in a private sale, you take risks (and hence the hefty discount).

                                                That being said, I would rather buy a $2k corvette tranny than a $$$$?? tranny for the M3
                                                I died.

                                                  That hurt man, ouch. Really. You know I lost my penis in a tragic fleshlight incident in late '05.
                                                  I died.

                                                    I can fit a hockey bag in the Z06 truck and it has a pass through for hockey sticks - that's all that really matters to me

                                                    Go for the vette, otherwise you will regret not getting it.
                                                    I bought a second choice once thinking I would be happy, 3 weeks later I sold it and bought what I wanted in the first place.

                                                    If you didnt need the hockey bag to fit I would say to look at the Lotus Elise, I have feel in love with them, but I have a second vehicle when I need to carry more then a 1l carton of milk in it, lol.

                                                    PS, when I was looking at a vette I took my hockey bag and sticks to the dealer to make sure they fit, and they did

                                                      M3 is for rich wives, are you a rich wife? if so get the M3.

                                                      It's not like a real man would actually drive around in a BMW.

The part that is most susceptible to damage under hard driving is the transmission - the reality is when buying a used car in a private sale, you take risks (and hence the hefty discount).

                                                          That being said, I would rather buy a $2k corvette tranny than a $$$$?? tranny for the M3
                                                          The vette's LS6 engine and the T56 tranny can take a BEATING and come back for more. I would worry more about the rear end, but they are all of 1000 bucks to get rebuilt.
                                                          An M3 tranny job is like 7k.

                                                          And only the guys with small dicks think the vette is a penis extention

                                                                      To me the Vette is not a daily driver, especially the ZO6!

                                                                      Nice - someone who's actually owned one. This would be my only car, but I wouldn't drive it every day. I live about 2 minutes from a train station and there is a station 5 minutes from the office. It's a 35 min train ride, my daily commute now is 30 - 45 minutes every day.

                                                                      So, this would be a car that I put maybe 10 - 12000 miles per year in the good weather months, I will be buying an SUV/truck in november/december for my winter car and the vette will go into hibernation for 3-4 months.

This is about owning a car that I can be proud of and play with.. modify, etc.. Also the outward image I am projecting also means absolutely nothing, and I would argue that both cars have equally as many positive and negative connotations.

Having driven one before I think they drive really well and have great power. I like the look and feel of European cars better than American cars too. But it seems to me like you want the Vette, so you should probably go for it.

I had an 03M3smg for a few years and it was flawless. I'd go with the M3 over the Vette,but absolutely have a qualified BMW dealership do a PPI on it.

I live about 2 minutes from a train station and there is a station 5 minutes from the office. It's a 35 min train ride, my daily commute now is 30 - 45 minutes every day.

                                                                                              So, this would be a car that I put maybe 10 - 12000 miles per year in the good weather months, I will be buying an SUV/truck in november/december for my winter car and the vette will go into hibernation for 3-4 months.
                                                                                              if it is your only car go with BMW but the vette is a top ride ( in the summer !)
