Sold my f80 m3, what to get next?
Discussion
Hi all I sold my f80 m3 last month, managed to get a very good offer on it. I have been weighing up a move for a x3m or f90 m5 at first. Another option was an rs5 although that might be a bit more costly. C63s is another option as it's a lot cheaper than an m5 or x3m but just want some advice from anyone that has experience of ownership or driving one or any of the others listed above. Ideally under 50k, Please share your experience. Thanks

I owned a M3cs after a M2c which I owned after a F90 M5c.
The M5 is an absolute animal but imho too big and heavy for UK small roads.

How did you find the M3cs compared the M2 comp?The M5 is an absolute animal but imho too big and heavy for UK small roads.

The M2c was pretty amazing too, perhaps just behind the M3 albeit not by much.
Both cars I would happily own again.

The F80 is a very difficult car to replace IMO for the budget, I have an F82 M4 and when I look at changing and put my criteria in to Autotrader the main results are another F82/ F80 and AMG mercs either C or E class.
I usually end up thinking I’ve got my F82 just how I want it in terms of maintenance and common faults sorted so I’ll keep it but I think if I was to go looking I’d have a test drive in a Mercedes E class AMG.

For something a bit different how about an S63 AMG Coupe?
In my view they are great value, fabulously built and mega-specified. Chris Harris really rated his.
Big ol' things though, which may be an issue if you enjoy punting at speed down B roads. No worse than an M5 though I'd imagine.
