M coupe, M3 or, M5. Ive driven none, so I cant make the decision.

The M coupe isnt really current, since it out of production, but ive read that its the best drivers' car in recent history, barring the CSL.

If practicality isn't a consideration, an M Coupe for sure. It's so underrated compared to the M3, M5 and M6, it's not even funny. After having driven the latter two back-to-back alongside the M Coupe, there's no denying how much more satisfying and simply better the Z4 is. There's no argument to be made. I don't care how much more horsepower the other three cars have. They're too heavy and detatched to be considered "driver's cars" in comparison to the M Coupe.

It's fair to say that the M Coupe drives like a sharper E46 M3. I suppose that makes it fall in-line with the CSL, which is supposedly the best driver's car that BMW has made. The fact that I could throw the back out so easily, and just dial in some opposite steering to catch it all in one simple move made it infinitely more satisfying to drive. It's far twitchier, far more tossable. There's just no substitute for lightweight driving dynamics.

In order from most wanted to least:
1) M Coupe
2) E46 M3 CSL
3) E9X M3
4) M5 (drives slightly better than the M6 in my opinion)
5) M6

It's a tossup between an M5 and a Z4M.

There are cars i'd rather have in all the categories, but I think the M5 the most dominant over its competitors in all facets of the game.

Z4M or E46 M3. The others are far less fun to drive.

It's also the last true/classic/pure BMW the world will ever see. The steering alone puts it in a class of 1. BMW = luxury from here on out...

More money + more horsepower does not = better car.
