I am trying to choose between them I like the BMW for looks in a posh way and think people would look at the evo as a car with big spoiler, and yes I am after a bit of a posers car as if I spend £28000 on a car I want it for looks an so I can pull fa***, not the police.
But on the other hand I want something diffrent and have loved the EVO since I laid eyes on them.
They are the same on insurance and form what I can tell petrol and parts, so I carn't choose because at the min I will get one and regret the other.

If you need "help" from a bias community on such an important decision such as how to spend 30k I wonder how you have managed to get through life to actually amass 30k.
do you ask people what colour to paint your house or ask the barman to choose what you drink?? then why ask us what car to spend all your hard earned on?? its your money and your the 1 who will have to live with the choice not us. take themnm both for a test drive and go from there... ps can any1 help mme decide whay shoes i should wear with my :crackup: :crackup: outfit??

Hi I have seen an evo 9 I would like to purchase I have a few question
6 May
I am trying to choose between and Evo 7 fq 300 and Evo 9 fq 300
3 June
Could someone please give me a run down on why [MIVEC] is so much better.
For example I could buy and Evo 8 fq 300 for a few grand cheaper than the Evo 9 fq 300 and all I can see diffrent is the mivec.
12 July
I am wanting to buy an Evo IX should I wait till march or get one now what sort of impact will the X have on the ix Fq300 just a guess.

I live in South Yorkshire Bessacarr Doncaster I am getting my Evo IX in 3 months and want to know if anyone would be willing to take me for a spin and a chat
to be fair the guy asking about the mivec had a fair point and where better to ask than here?? the rest though are pointless and your right by saying stop wasting our time..

The guy said on July 12th that he was waiting for a 9, then on the 3rd August he had 3 months left to wait. Then on 5th of August he wanted advice on a colour :crackup: He must of ordered a car and forgot to tell them what colour he wanted
And now he's asking if he should get an evo or M3?
i didn't realise the same person posted all that. he's a joke if he thinks were that dumb. go buy both and then you'l have no reason to ask stupid questions. buy an evo for 15 grand and a bmw for 15 grand and start your own forum for evo and m3 owners and leave us all alone.. you must have too much time on your hands to be asking all these questions over and over...

and I said I ll take him for a spin, but never had a reply.
i doubt he is going to buy any car eaither an m3 or a 2cv..i think he just likes asking daft questions to get people to waste there time in helping him. if he has ordered a 9 already but yet might buy a 7 if he doesn't buy an m3. he said he wants a car that will pull the ladies but all he has done is pull our legs.. he's a bull sh@tter of the highest order and were all mugs for falling for it every time... shame on us.....
I've had an E46 M3 and now have an Evo IX. My opinions follow.
M3 has nicer exterior/interior, sounds better and is far more refined. The M3 can make a huge amount of mechanical grip on smooth, dry surfaces. The SMG box can be really good. Servicing is less frequent, economy is similar. The IX is easily tuned to way beyond the performance of the M3, has better brakes, better steering feel, more traction, and especially handles bumpy roads better.
Presently I'm nearly as frustrated with the Evo's refinement and the chavvy image as I was with the M3's acceleration, braking, traction, lack of torque and bounciness on bumpy roads, as well as being useless in winter. In essence I remain in the rough car to get the performance.
A 996 turbo (or B7 RS4 - not driven?) is the nearest I can think of that would combine at least some of the best attributes of both, but the price is higher of course.
