Gone to the other side! But still have the IS
I have had the is for about 6 years and enjoyed it as much as I could but it was finally time to upgrade. Its a day and night difference!!!
I still have the IS and will be driven by my wife.

Maybe hahah!
Thanks!
I agree the new M's are much nicer. I was actually initially in the market for the e90 but they are just a pain to find.

Congrats on the new ride! The BMW may not be quite as reliable in the long run as the Lexus, but when bought new I think you will be fine for years to come! Usually bmws that have problems don't do so until they are of higher mileage/out of warranty. I really love those new M3's, awesome cars. If I could afford one, I would be driving one right now!

She loves the mods and will be driving with the mods on. No mods planned for the M yet.

From what I have been hearing the M's are a little better reliability wise. And the best part in buying new is it has warranty.

I do believe they may be a bit better. I've had an M3 before, was a 2004 year model I bought new back in late 2003. Amazing fun car and I didnt have any issues during the 4 years I owned it, other than a window regulator. And as fun as that car was, that new F30 M3 you got would completely destroy it in every possible way!

Yeah the E46's were great, either in M3 form, or 330i ZHP 6speed, those were amazing also! I was never to fond of the E90, hated the interior. Love the new F30 interior and exterior, and the drive of the F30 M3. I just don't like the steering feel and overall drive of the f30 328/335i. Those lost a lot of the "BMW feel" to me. They are very nice luxury cars, just not as sporty as they should be, aside from m3/m4. To me the X1 has a better old school BMW feel than the new 328i
