well i'll be honest here the M3 Smg that i had was an absolute dream to have to be honest I cant really compare it to the Boxster because in my opinion the M3 wins hands down, its just a different type of beast its raw its a brute!!

but theres lots of downsides, headgasket tend to go, as well as the vanos unit, smg pumps (which cost upwards of 2k to buy) and of course the famous rear subframe that tends to crack and twist!! fun fun fun lol , the reason i gave away my M3 was because of a cracked subframe. If i was to go for another M car it would be the E60 M5! Although there are good examples of M3's out there you just have to search hard and preferably get one which has had the subframe replaced by BMW!
