1997-1998 M3 or 2001-2003 Type S
 

1997-1998 BMW M3 or 2001-2003 Acura Type S ? :)
240HP for m3 and 260HP for type S


I still can't decide what to buy.....

M3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I got 97 m3 sedan
back in the day it was fastest sedan in North America and Best Handling Car in North America.

Even though it has less hp than Acura, it still much faster, and handling is unbelievable

the M3 is a kick ass car.

ye but i can buy brand new type s compare to the hard to find in good condition m3 ......

still........
M3

M3 I had a 98 for several years, great car. I regret selling it.

$650 at Dinan will liberate 30 HP from that honey too.

What's a type S look like?

M3...euro style any day

jimmy3way, why did you sell it ?

i like the type s

I got a ticket driving to LA doing 118, insurance suddenly became financially unrealistic.

I had that car for 3o,ooo miles and the only problem I EVER had with it, aside from loving it more than my girlfriend was the left fog light kept dying on me.

better color

jimmy, what did you buy after you sold m3 ?

I'm too embarassed to admit it.

Okay you beat it out of me, I got a Prelude SH. Cheap payments, cheap insurance, and I sold the M3 for more than I paid for the Honda.

weak

why emmbarased ? they are nice cars too, btw Im wondering how old are u jimmy ? :)

because I'm 19 and if i'll get few tickets im done too... hmmm

An M3 is feeling up the prom queen, a Prelude is a Salt Lake City lapdance at best.

I was 18 when I got my m3 (now 19) and I pay 209 a month for it, and I have a ticket

hehe
i got accord 2dr now... wanna upgrade it :)

:1orglaugh didn't say i was buying it, someone just asked what it looked like.
i'm prefer a bmw 5 or 7 :winkwink:

Well if you're 19, unless you sling mad porn you probably can't afford it.

The M3 I bought new, and was paying like $600+ a month after putting ten grand down on the thing. Insurance was $200 a month.

After the ticket they wanted $500 a month in insurance.

The Lude with 25% down (like $6k I think) was less than $400 a month and insurance was still a little over $200 a month.

sick, can't be .... i pay 300 for accord and u pay 210 for m3 >? wtf :glugglug

jimmy, i dont wanna lease it or finance it... i only buy out full car...

Where the FUCK do you live???? That's SICK!

You can find a used M3 for around $30k. If it has serious miles on it you can grind the seller but it doesn't really matter those things will do 200k miles easy.

xxxcam where are you from?

jimmy, is it good for winter too ? because i will need to drive it in winter as well... since it has RWD

sick, toronto

damn xxxcam, you mofo, why didn't you say who you are.

I pay 209USD (314CAD) for my m3.
And I live in Toronto

hehe

I see you are Canadian...
300.00 a month Canadian is like 130.00 US.

Not too bad.....

300 can is 200 usd
;p

I own and recomend a Acura CLS just get it in Manual, every ricer gets a beamer, but CLS' are rare and fast as hell too. Get Headers and add an extra 25 hp.

BTW nice comes with a nice navi, awesome interior, and a nice system as well.

You can't compare a Honda/Acura to an M3 two different worlds, maybe a Honda/Acura to a Toyota/Lexis but not an M3.

If you get a Acura CLS, don't be surprised if your transmission fails on you.

The E36 M3 is a solid car (the newer E46 M3 engines blow up).

Stay away from the CLS.

posh i hear that first time from u... :warning

I had a 99 M3 very solid no issues, a 240 HP M3 will blow by a 260 HP Acura it's not all about the numbers.

I turned it in 9 months ago for the New E46 M3, I was aware that the early E46 would rev to high and spin the rod bearings, but that has been fixed, I have 9000k on mine now no problems at all.

Regards,

Kevin

Buy a truck.

uh yeh u dont know wut ur talking about , ahahah right add headers

Jap cars are the universal ricer car

if u want class u'll always go euro

you got it wrong buddy, every ricer got Honda/Acura.

M3 is the closest you can go to real race car without going broke.

BTW, my friends had to order a new transmission for his Acura RSX Type S. He had round 2000 miles on it and it was stick.(thank you warranty)

definetely, definetely, an m3...

had a 98 convertible for about 7 months, just sold it for a winter car, the greatest car i've ever owned, fucking flies. a nice m3 will get way more attention/compliments than an acura anyday.

goodluck man :thumbsup

Listen to the guy with a small penis. He's right for a change.

ouch, that was harsh

go with the m3! i don't think that s type look very good.

If you get the M3 i got a Dinan High Flow Cold Air intake & High Flow Throttle Body (both from dinan) for sale!

In case you don't believe that the transmission problem is really widespread ... go to www.acura-cl.com sign up for an account, read the "Frequent topics: transmission problems" section.

Stay away from that car. The automatic is a piece of crap, and the manual is too tall for that weak of a car. The m3 is a much better built car.

I'm an owner of BOTH.

Then why are you even comparing these cars to begin with?
IMHO, M3 all the way. the Acrua is Wrong Wheel Drive

....but ah hell, go all out and get the 4-seater skyline GT-R :Graucho
