4.4 Overall rating
(3 reviews)Recently purchased one, and am loving it. Great to have the six-speed manual for the base trim. :)
Manual transmission; great stye; may change color. Interior looks good
Id go with a porsche specifically the 718 models in the early 70ks for they offer equal if not more performance and tech, otherwise offered in the m3 and its configurations at a higher price. Reminder that Id also recommend: renault megane rs trophy r Dodge charger scat pack Camaro ss or 2ss All of which are in the same price range if not lower, but with equal if not better performance than the m3.
