Yeah I can see it being useful. I have a sunroof on my car and it gets kinda loud when its open. Don't know if it would be worth the diffuser though I kinda like the wind noise....

Nice! That is one sweet looking ride. Enjoy it!!
With the Euro tanking, maybe you can ship it to Germany and enjoy taking it out on their Autobahn.

You bought the better car! Good homework you did.

Both cars are fun in their own way. Drive safe!

Nothing wrong with the M3. Us poor folks just have to settle for our $28,000 Mustangs though.
I was sorely tempted by a Base 2010 Vette at $8,000 Off though.

Beautiful car and if you have the coin, it's a really outstanding choice. For similar money i personally would have considered the cts-v coupe. Then it wasn't me, it was you and you picked an amazing car. ENJOY!!!

Nice ride dude! I can't blame you for buying one of those if you can afford it.

But "only a few hundred more a month"??? I don't think "only" fits in that statement.

Sweet ride! I've got a 2001 M3, fabulous machine with an engine from the gods. Gotta confirm the uber high maintenance costs, which drive me nuts. how's she compare with your '04? And how's it compare with a 2011 Stang (I presume you test drove one)?

The mags have them in a deadheat, that is ofcourse if Ford ever decides to send my car.

Congrats on the M3, but wish you would have bought a Gt500.

I'll join the fun

The new five-oh is a perfect car to buy brand new and keep long-term, it won't kill me to leave in the garage over the winter while I make the payment on it.

My days of Mustang ownership are as follows:

1982 Mustang GT
1985 Mustang GT
1987 Mustang GT
1990 Mustang LX 5.0L
1993 Mustang SVT
1995 Mustang SVT
1998 Mustang SVT..I loved this car even though it was a 4.6, but it was a 4V.

I left owning Mustangs in 2001 with my first BMW purchase a brand new E46 M3, followed by a 04 M3 and now my 2011 ZCP M3.
