Hell You could probably do an full rb26 swap driveline and all for less than you would pay for the m3. My 2 cents. If you just got out of debt then why get back into it? Unless your uber rich and are going to buy the m3 cash then please ignore my suggestion.
I'd be going an E36 M3, 1999. Maybe a 2004 E46, but I doubt it. I like their body but not all the addon electronics...plus their interior is more lexus like than performance oriented. The E36 is very driver oriented. I have my wife's car if I want to travel/get groceries.

I am looking at about $15k tops for a nice low mileage one.

If I upgraded my engine I am looking at about $6-8k to do it right.

Then I'd have even more money into a car that's pretty much going to be locked into a maximum selling price already.

I don't plan on financing the M3, I am doing pretty well; just like cars a bit different than what is around me all the time and I hate car payments.
