M3 Ranking. What's your list?

[MrBurgundy]

Was talking to 2Man, our defacto leader here.

He laughed at my list

e90
e30
e36
f80
e46
g80

This is based on driving experience- how it drives, looks, and sounds

no so much as to cost, reliability, complexity ect ect

E46
G80

This list kinda messed me up. It’s hard to separate the emotional from the practical.

E92
E46
E30
E36
Can't be bothered to list the turbo models, one sounds offensively bad, one looks offensively bad and it and barely sounds better.

Well, if we're dreaming:

E30
E30
E30
and
E30.

If we're driving
E46
E46 track car
E46 wagon converted to S54 and M3 parts
E46 M3 race car
E30

t
would only want the Euro E36M3,
but why,
when there's the E46M3

[MrBurgundy]

My perfect M car would be an s54 e36

Something about the e36 styling just hits for me while the e46 styling is just okay to me

Also, the e30 is probably the only 3 series IMO where a non M late model looks sleeker

but all the E46 Touring needs is the engine and a manual trans.

E90 is the only one i want, bar maybe a E46CSL
