I think your choices here are apples and oranges. Aside from the wide range of prices, performances varies greatly. I'd take BMW M3 at anytime. This one choice will smoke the rest on your list.

yup your right... it is apple's and oranges that I'm comparing...
it's just that those are the cars/suv's that I seem to fancy now a days...

and i'm trying to budget a little... trying to get the most
for the dough... although an M3 is quite a car... hmmm...
decisions decisions... lolz ;)

[mbt]

M3 na no! hehe... there can be no substitute :D

As for the Mercedes G-Wagen, it's sold as the G500 in the states. it's most comparable to the old Lexus LX450 in function and design (a dedicated, bona fide, out-and-out off-roader in luxury trappings), although the look and spirit of the G500 is closer to the Land Rover Defender.

hmm... M3 is so damn tempting... that's for sure... hehehe...
btw.. is the M3 FWD RWD 4WD ?
I'm also thinking about the winters here in the east coast (heard from my office mates it's really cold as hell... not to mention the snow can be quite deep and slippery... thus i need more traction)...
I really might need a 4WD... or maybe an SUV 4WD... that's why
the decision which one to choose is also hard...

M3 is RWD... it seems that winter tires will tremendously increase the capability of rear-wheel drivers in snow and ice

in that case, get a 330Ci 6-speed and a RAV4 or something hehe... or an X5 :D

hayy.... never ending choices... lolz...

kung puwede lang bumili ng sports car... tapos suv na 4wd... hehehe... la na akong problema... lolz

M3 is a rear wheel drive

and for snow...

ahh, the beauty of 300hp, DCCD, all-wheel drive ;) hehehe

and if you wanna stay EURO, BMW 330Xi is an AWD and has 225hp.

and, instead of the 350Z, I suggest the Infiniti G35 Sports Coupe. I like the G35's rear and front end than the 350Z. I prefer an all-black configuration...hehe

[Karding]

Porsche Cayenne, no thank you. Seen it in person, looks like a 911 with body lift If they only have a lower body color coded with the car, it would have been better.

BMW X5 is preferred... ;)

dang that looks lovely...
your right... black body... with black rims looks so phat...

[Karding]

I've seen a sedan version on all black config. Even the emblems are black. Sh*t reminds me of Yakuza's rides in Japan...scary hehehehe.

ano ba budget mo? the cayenne and g-wagen (G500) are about $80 - 100k. For that money, I'd go with a Porsche 996 Carrera 4S

I agree with almost everyone else that if you have the money to spend (about $50k), go with the M3. But if you're looking to spend about $35k (the other cars on your list), I'm partial to the WRX STi.

[HBOY]

if you are worried about snow.. i'd get an suv na lang.. 4wd. G-Wagen... 3 diff locks!..e hehe. very robust body!... kahit san mo isabak!.. kung gusto mo all out.. get a UNIMOG.. eheh. just kidding.:D

[1D4LV]

if i have the budget, i would go for the evo.

[kevinp]

M3 na! if you're gonna get a 3-series be sure to get the e46. The sneak previews of the next 3 are out and it looks butt-ugly.

[r6]

bakit la mga big bike? pro i'll go for the european cars BMW n BENZ!!!!

[woodfire]

M3 E46!!! No buts, no ifs! Its a wonderful combination of luxury and performance!!! Yup, the ultimate driving machine!!!
