Chiming in before the others do. It's been ask a million times on the forum, and the answer is it's cheaper to sell and buy a used M3.

Is there a reputable BMW tuning shop in your area?

The upgrade you are considering will require a relationship for post installation maintenance tasks.

That's so weird that you'd say that, because it's still cheaper to just buy an M3. Like he said, it's been asked a million times. Your car shares next to nothing with the chassis and setup of an M3, despite being a 3 series, and a low end one at that.
