That's a tough one. Really depends on what you want. I'd really have to think about insurance on the M3... other than that... I'd pick the S2000 if I wanted to keep things tuner, but definitely get the M3 to pimp and real performance

Why do people think the insurance on the M3 will be more expensive than the S2000?

The S2000 would cost me $200/year than the M Coupe. E36 M3 is actually cheaper than the M Coupe to insure for me.

The quotes I got... yes it was and IS crazy expensive.

Depends on the driver and the state.

Dood, the s2k (not including 2004) redlines at 9000 rpm. That's even higher than the b18c5, I thought that was pretty impressive.
