09 Carrera S PDK or 2012 m3?

max08e90 · 09-23-2011, 03:09 PM

Discuss. Assume Carrera S has very low milage.

Carrera S PDK.

mact3333 · 09-23-2011, 03:44 PM

Porsche if you dont need 4 seats or useable trunk for sure.

slo_guy · 09-23-2011, 03:56 PM

P-car...depending on what you need it for

RedGT3 · 09-23-2011, 04:13 PM

Porsche

BMW//M · 09-23-2011, 05:17 PM

The M3 but I love the Carrera, especially the 4S.

UltimateBMW · 09-23-2011, 05:36 PM

Which ever you feel most comfortable in, enjoy driving the most.

this.

oh and get the M3

persian54 · 09-23-2011, 06:11 PM

If the Porsche has extended warranty, then yes

If the warranty is just about over, you need to factor in the costs that may possibly start piling up

M3Bahn · 09-23-2011, 07:01 PM

I just drove a 4S cab. on the autobahn and was not impressed at all.

Elie335 · 09-24-2011, 03:18 AM

m3 2012 NO QUESTION.

Not a fan of frogs family.

persian54 · 09-24-2011, 04:14 AM

now go to 6speed and see what people say lol

TK-421 · 09-24-2011, 04:46 AM

Get the 911

But for a little more you could get a GTS - it's got the wider hips of the 4/TT/GT models, an extra 23 hp, centerlock wheels, and it feels much better behind the wheel.

Or a used one for the same or less as you are looking at spending now. Lots of M3 vs GTR threads, and GTR seems to win a majority of the time...

I'm thinking GTR as well, the 2012 upgrades are impressive.

b0bab0i · 09-24-2011, 01:47 PM

Wait for 991

But out of those 2 the Carrera S for sure

blender · 09-24-2011, 02:00 PM

The title says it all... the V8 will be going away shortly... get em while they last. The Pcar is superb, but will be available in some form for years to come. The V8 M3, not so much.

FStop7 · 09-24-2011, 03:28 PM

Porsche, there is no substitute.

GregTheStig · 09-24-2011, 04:45 PM

If it's purely for a weekend I think you would have more fun with the Porsche. Personally I would rather buy the V8 M3 while it exists, and it's still an absolute blast to drive.
