both are great.
the E92 looks fresh and contemporary, however it's design isn't balanced somehow... don't know how to explain exactly. It looks great, much better than the rivals. While the E46 is just brillaint, has one of the most beautiful classic and balanced muscular designes around. I just can't get bored looking at it. love those flared wheel arches

Both are great cars, equally good.

(I like the rear end of the E92 coupe better than the sedan version by a long shot!)

ofcourse now the E46 looks old in comparison..but the problem is that the new one doesent look ALOT better wich it should..
each M3 should be a huge leap forward in design..and this one isnt..
so ............

IMHO both M3 generations are an engineering marvel. I wouldn't mind at all owning any of these two magnificent machines.

This is the best photo, clearly shows that M3 E92 has more aggressive presence than the old. New M3 succeed to be elegant and agressive at the same time.
M3 E46 only succed to look good IMO.

After seeing them in real life Im not unsure on the new M3 anymore. Mighty fine but much larger than the previous M3.
The rims on old M3 is my favorite wheels, I wonder if they look good on the new M3.

They look just fine.



Looking back at it, I find it comical how much crap this car got before it was even released. While the E46 will forever be a classic, I think the E92 is superior in almost every way.

Another vote for; Can't decide - Both are gorgeous! ...!

To be honest, if I still have to grab a single key, I'll go for the E-46 ...!
