Convince me not to buy an 05 Elise - BMW M3 (E46 M3) Message Board & Forum

I haven't posted much here in a while - too busy.

After selling my track rims, i set about to getting
my 02 M3 ready for sale (removed the AP Racing brakes,
intake & other bits). I was about to have the stock suspension
put back in when the Elise bug hit. Got a test ride in a
08 Elise and it was a hoot. Driving back home, i realized
that the M3 is much more solidly built but not nearly as
tossable. Decided to keep the M3 for cruising.

I may end up buying an 05 Elise with 4k miles, Sport Pack/Touring
pack & no track time :-).
I may also end up getting a BMR supercharger to add some torque
in about a yr tho (for city driving with 30+ mpg :-)
