| If ultimate practicality is your goal... keep the M3. I have an E30 M3 and a 99 MCoupe, and I can tell you for a fact that I can haul more stuff in the trunk and back seat of the M3 than I can in the Coupe. The fact is that the cargo area of the Coupe is quite narrow, and there is a bulkhead behind the seats which will prevent loading things all the way into the front seat area (ala a civic hatchback) It MAY be better for you if you need to haul something ideal for the Coupe i.e. a 36" box or something. My job sometimes requires me to haul a broadcast TV camera, Tripod and associated equipment...this will all fit into the trunk of the M3 + 3 passengers, but not the Coupe. I can fit the equipment but I cannot take anyone else. I love the Coupe, but it is only practical in comparison to the MRoadster. To an M3 it is no contest.
