my car delemia.....
Well, here it goes, i currently have an 07 335i, and an 06 sti.. i plan on getting a new car for 08 and was planing on trading in my 335 for an m3 with dct.. well with reviews of the m3 being just average(imo) and the competition really heating up,(c63, RS4,Zo6,GTR) ive been really considering other cars, and whether the new m3 is the right car for me...My sti to me is a great sports car, but lacks the refinment and everyday feel that my 335 has, but then again i love the raw feel and power of my sti (447whp), maybe its the tein coilovers but the ride is also harsh, and am actually looking into a kw or prodrive set up, but thats a side note..to me maybe the new m3 is to refined for me and the numbers just dont do it for me, i told myself when i got the 335 that i wanted a factory car that trapped 115mph stock but was built for the track, and thought the new m3 was going to do it, maybe i wasnt being realistic but thats what i felt with a 420hp v8, I AM NOT A BADGE WHORE BUT DO APPRECIATE GERMAN REFINEMENT..well with the nissan gtr running a confirmed 7.35 at Nordschleife puts it 5 seconds faster then a 997 turbo and only 3 seconds slower then a 997 gt2..(im a big p car fan and compare all cars to them) did nissan get it right?? we all know its gonna be easy to make power out of it and it just may be that little more refinement im looking for over my sti.. Problem that i had with it was the nissan service, and with nissan of japan building special service centers for it in japan, would they be doing it here??? would they answer my bigest fear of owning that car??? Then theres the zo6 we all know its a beast of raw power and still put down a 7.42 at Nordschleife but does lack the german refinement or maybe even the japanese refinement of both the m3 and gtr has, but trapping a 128mph in the quarter is a major turn on for me, so i guess it really is between those 3 cars as im not to crazy over the rs4 and c63 but do think they are good cars, what do you guys think style wise i like the new m3 but its not a omg i gotta have it style, the gtr to me is on par with the m3 but the roof line or angle to me is kinda a turn off, and the zo6 comes in a last place of styling between the 3.. performance wise i must say i have to give it to the gtr im not a big 1/4 mile runner but do like to say it can run it, so i guess its gtr #1, zo6 #2, and m3 #3, so now i must say should i be taking that chance on the new gtr????

Is it a paragraph? I think it may be a single run-on sentence.

Why do people even bother responding just to say "wall o text" or whatever along those lines. Just ignore it and move on.
Anyways, OP, I say wait for some comparisons. They're bound to show up sometime soon that's for sure.

Im sure the gtr with the twitn turbos in that car will be running conservatively, so I bet with just an ecu tune, that car will be over 600 hp on stock turbos, thats nasty! I would wait until all three are out though, and then make a comparison, maybe test drive all three if you can.
