Yep, true about the price of a new M3, but if you are one of the people with deep pockets, $65k gets you an awesome machine in the M3. I prefer the 4 door over the coupe. If I were to get one, I would be a pre-owned certified and save several thousands over new.
M5...I have a friend who is a BMW tech and I cringe whenever he tells me stories about the cost of repail bills. According to him, it is foolish for any "regular Joe" like me to own or buy a 335, e46 to new M3, all M5, or 740 out of the warranty period. He also warns that very often, they tend not to inform owners of many "can be replaced now under warranty" items and wait til after warranty expires to tell the owners about problems that could have been fixed during the warranty period.
