    Tough.

    The NSX beats it by a hairline.

      I've always like cars with boxy lines and round headlights so it's by default that I like e30's. And the stance nation nsx photos just confirmed that I don't care about the nsx. But I would drive one if I was throw the keys.

        NSX all the way. Its quicker, and I have no need for a rear seat, like at that point it might as well be a wagon so I can at least haul some shit. Even though values are similar, for some reason the M3 feels like such a rare and desirable car I wouldn't want to daily it, where I'd daily an NSX without a drop of guilt. Primary downside to NSX as I see it is the mid-engine layout making serviceability more difficult, but if i had that much money to spend on a car I wouldn't mind handing off the difficult shit to one of my experienced Honda buddies.

          Same here. My first few cars were Shoebox Nova's and I have a soft spot for all things square.

            never really liked the NSX. 3000GT pushes my buttons more

            And id prob still prefer an 850CSL over that.

                When I was a wee lad drawing rough pictures of sports cars, they were always aerodynamic with slanted noses, never in the boxy sedan style. So I give the nod to the NSX & MR2 here. Now that I can appreciate the racing pedigree of the M3 with its flared fenders, I love that style as well. As mentioned earlier, the NSX is just faster looking and exotic enough to stand out in traffic.

                  I saw my first NSX on the street only a couple of months ago.

                  Driven by an old bloke, it was purple metalic and was a stock auto.

                  At first I was like "shit its an NSX" so I roll down the window to listen to it take off.

                  The most boring fucking thing ive ever heard. Sounded like a honda accord. Instantly turned off.

                    funny thing is the autos had different programing so they are less powerful and supposedly a bit less rev happy. Stock NSX exhausts are pretty boring but a good exhaust they sound way better

                      The NSX is a very good stock vs. stock competitor of the e46 M3.

                        How would a properly setup Boxster S do against them?

                          E30 M3 for me. More practical, and I imagine still easier to work on.

However, that is the formula you've come to expect when talking about a sports car and that's what I like about the E30 M3. It's not a typical sports car but a performance luxury sedan as well.
