i am almost in your same situation but a few years behind
i have an ek sedan
i want a bmw m3 4dr 5spd
i would get a si sedan if i could afford it
i will probably end up with a 2000 or so gsr 4dr in the next few years unless i can afford the si
the bmw just isnt relaible enough for me to have as my only car, and i dont have the experience or space to work on it myself, which is unfortunate because i would love to learn how and have the room to do so

when you pick up the new car are you parting your ek at all?
i have been admiring it for a while
