if you desperately want one right now take the 10k loan and get one as use the savings to pay it back. I dont know how old you are but I've nearly finished paying off my loan I took out in feb. I have a credit card aswell but I'd say I was pretty good with money so I wont have any debt come end of sept. I'm still young so the savings are a massive deal to me but if you are older you might want to consider not buying the M3 right now and have it later so that any mis-haps you may have can be covered
I was in the same situation as you in feb and I went for it and if you are tight with money it's great but if not dont do it by all means PM me if you have any personal questions about it all?

Just go on the dole and claim every benefit under the sun,that pays for nice motors.
This is after i watched a program on TV the other day about a work shy scum bag with 18 kids,he had a Mitsi 3000GT on the drive as well as a nearly brand new Transit minibus :x :x :x :x :x :x

Sorry for the useless post Chris,I needed somehere to vent this anger,and your thread was sort of the right place.

mine cost 6k and appart from servicing has needed nothing other than an alternator and disks / pads in the last year and i've probably done 30,000km in that time. it's no minter, but scrubs up nicely, and, as it was a 'cheap' no-minter i have no worries about using and enjoying it every day.
cheers,
