i almost ended up in the sedan also.. we threw the kids in the car.. looked around.. they had legroom.. lol.. we played and thought real hard too.. tough choice though... glad you get to enjoy it.. you dont see many M3 sedans on the road.. at least i havent.. and you dont have to have an e60 to chill with friends and show off your car! linger and post pics when you can.. congrads!!

pls share your first impression switching from e60 to the M3.
First impressions:
1) What happened to my gas mileage?
![Embarrassment](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/ohmy.gif)
2) Under throttle, 'Man this thing is noisy', how come that needle is moving so fast?
![Unsure](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/unsure.gif)
3) In comfort mode, like riding on rocks.
4) The owners manual, et al, won't fit in the glove box?
5) My wife thinks it's too small, and the seats are uncomfortable.

Yea, it's that good! In fact where I come from that's 'wicked pisser'!
