HELP, don't know wether to get an m3 or 335i

I've been searching for a decent e92 m3 for a while now but now I'm having second thoughts since I've been doing lots of research on 335i's and I personally like the 335i because of my age and a lot cheaper to mod. I'm 16 now before anyone rants on my age I've driven powerful cars on a daily and this will be my second German so I know what I'm getting into, thanks

Get a Civic and call it a day. At age 16 (17 when you will be driving) you should not be picking up a 300hp car as your first vehicle. Once you develop some decent driving skills are your maturity level increases then go for a more powerful car. And IDK how the hell you are driving powerful cars daily when all you have is a learners permit. Also i LOLed when you said this was your second German car. So you owned cars with no driving license?

This isn't what he asked at all. Not answering him won't help.

I would get the 335i because it's cheaper to buy and upgrade, and also a little more practical (if you get the e90 anyway).

My first car given to me was a Porsche Cayenne s sorry for the confusion, it was a gift from my parents I have over 3 years of driving experience. My second car was a 2013 camry se v6 with a very good amount of power so the driving experience maturity is there. I have my juniors license and I'm very responsible I just think it's time I buy my own vehicle now and show more responsibly instead of living off my parents

I've been told the e90 is more practical especially on insurance but the coupe look has me crazy in love I think I'm really leaning toward an e92, thanks for the help appreciate the response

Who are your parents and when can they adopt me. I'm dying to find out what it feels like to suffer from "Affluenza".

It you are looking for a honest answer get a older higher mile 335. Very young drivers are generally not good drivers so it's likely whatever you get will be sacrificed on the alter of inexperience.

Why are you telling yourself you were driving since 13. You probably sat in your dads lap haha. Seriously get a 335i. M3 too much problems for a student. Maybe even a e90 328i no problems whatsoever, it was the best choice I made.

Nothing wrong with being rich. Who the fuck wants to be poor and makes decisions such as, "will I be paying the water or cable bill next month?" It's funny how poor people hate the rich yet many of them play the lottery once a week. I think most people don't actually hate the rich, they just hate rich people who brag and those who had the money handed to them(lottery winners seem to fit in that category, oh the ironies of life).

I'm not rich either, but my parents only gave me $250 towards my first car.. I assume that Porsche Cayanne wasn't much fun so you're looking for a better car than that POS they gave you, must be rough man.

Get a 335i, then shortly after, make a thread "I bought a 335i, how do I make it fast?".
