I am not sure about Stevus but I have owned 3 MKIV Supras and I own my M3. The supras have explosive off the line power and are extremely cheap to mod. It is easy to get to 500 hp with basic bolt ons.

The M3 is a very different animal. For one thing it has all of the power that you really need in a daily driver. It handles extremely well. The Supra handles well too but it just feels heavy compared to the M3.

As far as rice, my Supras always got vastly more attention than my M3. The majority of people on the street look at a Supra and like the look where as with the M3 most people seem to think that you are driving a basic 3 series.

The BMW choice is one of understated competence and fun. The Supra is overstated and somewhat outrageos.

They are both a blast and it just depends on what you are looking for. I would definitely opt for the M3 if you ever take guests or kids anywhere or if you have very much luggage to carry.

They are both great cars.

Good Luck,

Adam
