Hello once again! A late reply is definately better than no replies so no worries! As per my understanding, EU cars are RHD, otherwise known as EU-Spec, an...

HI! Anyone have any idea?

On the road price... that means it should include first year insurance, road tax, COE, registration etc etc.

ceecookie SG

i think price should be between 300k to 350k after road tax etc

but it rocks in only bhp coz the Evo has more torque than it..

M3: 395 n/m Evo: 407n/m
M3: ard 395 bhp Evo 280 bhp
Top Speed: M3: 250( electronical limited) Evo :180 ( electronical limited)

the last time i asked in jan '05, it was $338k for the M3 coupe, $358k for the cabrio.

*edit: price doesn't include first year insurance though. otherwise, all other fees have been included.

SGD$338,000 out the door.

Are you interested in a 2002 Imola Red M3? I'm looking to let go mine. Just order a 2005 M3. Laughing

devmeister SG

Would you rather have an M3 or an Evo? Nuff said. Smile

More torque doesn't mean anything... looking at the top speed and hp, I think the M3 can still out run the Evo.. you can check car magazines for the price... it was around $330k - $380k in March, depending on whether you want the convertible...

i bet the M3 is much more fun to drive because it does not have as much computer assistance compared to the evo.

besides, 343bhp from an NA 3L straight 6 is highly respectable. the evo has so much torque because of it's turbo. Rolling Eyes

but comparing prices, The Evo 9 GSR at ard 160k and M3 at 330k++
i think that the Evo is more money-for-value and if u want more bhp, than u can modd it. If u spent , say, 100k on modds than the overall cost will be 260k and it will have like ard 360bhp after modification.Then same for M3....than u can compare them, 360bhp Evo at 260k ++ versus 450bhp++ M3 at 430k ++

which one will u wanna want in terms of price...
or if u want to modd the Evo untill it's price is same as the M3 then 2x360bhp=720bhp at ard 430k ++

then u see the overall winner......the Evo is cheap but it's modification base is powerful and u can modd untill crazy without having to spent a bomb on the same modd on the M3

zulu4 SG

hi, how much are you asking? what's the OMV, COE, mileage and has the car been tracked before?

thanks

TwinTurbo_Supra SG

err, after reading through ur illogical theories of modding cars.

i will still want the M3. Laughing

nOrmalbOi SG

first.. its known as value for money.... not money for value Rolling Eyes

2nd

whos talking about modding besides u?

sides.. u wan mod.. go get a Skyline lah any similar mods done on both cars.. the Skyline would prolly still kick the Evo's arse... scope of modability oso wider on the Skyline..

but this is a thread to ask about the costs of a M3

and i would take a M3 anyday.. if i can afford it..

and b4 u shoot ur mouth off next time.. pls read properly.. get ur facts rite.. and be old enuff to learn to drive

nOrmalbOi SG

and next time use ur eyes to see can… stop using ur nostrils

diggo SG

THANK YOU all for the feedbacks!!

izit SMG or manual? Very Happy

M3s in SG are all SMG-II unless specifically ordered.

Hello bro,

the whole point about an M3 is ultimate comfort + luxury. The sport aspect of the car is not all that matters although it is one of the fastest + best handling cars on the road today. The E46 is almost already 5 years old and thus starting to show its age but with the new E90 M3 coming out in a year or 2, that will defaintely be a force to reckon with!

Cheers! And enjoy your car in good health.

The M3 is already pulling 343BHP out of its stock in-line 6 engine. Technically speaking, not many mods can get much more HP out of the M3 that's why people usually leave it stock except for intakes and etc.

The only mod (Well that i know of at least) that can add 100HP would be adding a supercharger.

Therefore, yes, an Evo/Skyline/Rex will be a better choice if modification and value of money was being considered. Cheaper + larger HP gains.
