M3 Evo - 2 or 4 door.....
Discussion
Local specialist has one for sale, and I'm going to view it tommorrow. All the goodies are there, and I know all the usual things to look out for (thanks to you lot!), but it's a 4 door. Is this good, bad or ugly? I don't need a 4 door (family grown up ), so is this a useful feature come re-sale? Is it any less 'nickable' with the extra doors? Comments welcome please.
Tabs,
I think in general the 4 door is felt to be a little less desirable due to it being a bit more 'family man' rather than thrusting 'coupe'
The suspension is less sporty, but other than that it is the same car.
It is generally cheaper, due to it being slightly less desirable.
Personally, I prefer the 4 door. I think I am in the minority though, which is great as I have 2 kids, and with them comes a whole plethora of baggage which negates the coupe.

Yes, Mike, that's as I thought. I already have an E36 touring, wouldn't it be great if they made an M3 touring? You could go to the tip, on holiday, and trackdays to blow the cobwebs away......Most other marques produce medium size perfomance estates. BMW seem to be missing out here.
There should be no suspension difference what so ever if we are talking about an M3 whether it is a coupe of a 4 door. A 4 door if anything will handle better as they are generally regarded as having a stiffer chassi. The long doors in the coupe allow for more flex. If it was me for looks i would prefere to have a coupe, but at the end of the da when buying a car like this you want to buy a good car. If it's a good car thats whats important
