The only problem with the m3 is the maintenance cost. Uuber high as my family owns one of each of the body styles from the 90 widebody to the e36, 46 and 92. The current is the most problematic one as is the 335s. But the older ones are a little bit better. Buy it stock and CPO from bmw with an extended warranty or you wont beable to afford to own it with a 25k price cap on financing. You know the saying, if you dont qualify to purchase the cat new you definately shouldnt buy it used and out of warranty. Bmws and mercedes are all built as throw away lease cars. Electrical nightmares with either brand. But my brother loves them and buys them all the day they come out.

Oil change for e46 is 90 weight oil due to shitty crank design btw.

For a daily my choices would be an Evo, g37c, rx8, GTO 6.0, base c6 vette for sporty cars all under 25k and cheap to maintain. A corvette is a hell of alot faster and cheaper to own than an m3 or a 350z. Speaking from experience here...
