I was back and forth on whether or not I should take the M3. I was going to decide when I woke up this morning, but the weather made my decision for me.  I do not like driving the M3 in the rain, it feels like it wants to swap ends at any moment. So looks like I’m taking the 3, I guess things could be worse.

They’re both 3's. I get so confused....

I could see that. When I say “the 3" I mean my E92 aka my BMW with a WBA VIN.

You know, now I’m even more confused. You need to sell one of them. STAT.

Nah, I’d probably lose a bunch of money if I sold the 3, and well I like the M3 too much.

I was doing the same with the ST because it’s so new and I’ve already put a lot of miles on in 3 weeks for the break in. I decided to take it since all I have is the ST or the *shudder* cobalt. Luckily you have a nice dd.

I am a bit paranoid as I haven’t gotten a clear bra and a truck kicked up a fair amount of rocks and now I have some new scratches on the hood. Hopefully this doesn’t happen again.

Well I got this car with the explicit purpose of racking up the miles on. I’ve put a little over 6k miles on it about 10 weeks. I’m not really suffering, I mean I won’t have an M3 to drive but it’s not like an E93 328i sucks to drive. Plus I don’t have to worry about the M3, hit a possum the other day with my bumper. Would have been devastated in the M3, I’m just a bit disappointed cause it happened in the 3.

When you driving down?

That makes sense. If I had an M3 and hit something I’d lose it. How does the 3 coupe drive?

I’ll probably get to Nashville around 10. I’ll probably leave work a bit early but the missus has to get off work and drive down to my place which will add about 2 hours to my wait after work

Oh well that’s 11 hours away. Guess I need to organize a South Central one.

It’s pretty good to drive, it feels like a duller M3. The steering isn’t as good, the handling isn’t as good, it’s down 184 hp. However, the M3 does all that with expensive parts, tires, and a fuel bill that makes the king of Saudi Arabia smile. The 3 makes a better DD, the M3 is a better car though. Don’t get me wrong, I really like driving the 3, it’s a great car. That said, I love the M3; it’s phenomenal.
