good weekend sport car that complement well with model 3 owners

[coolmanfever]

hello all,

model 3 has been my daily driver between work and home during the week. It makes daily commute much more relaxed on highway with autopilot with heavy traffic. But sometimes I miss the engine sound and mechanical sound of gear shifting and clutch. I am thinking to buy a weekend sport car. what is good weekend sport car that complement well with model 3 owners ? thanks!

For me, I'd have to say a 3-series BMW.

Mazda MX5 is a great little sports car for weekend fun.

What's your budget? I'd vote for a jaguar f type or any '18+ mustang.

Cayman.

I object, your honor.

New? Used? Budget?

C6 Z06, at least that is my plan for my weekend car.

My M3P is going to be my weekend sport car. I'm not interested in going back to the complexities and maintenance of ICE. If I had a ton of cash, the Porsche Taycan would be really nice too.

Here‘s the perfect weekend car for me.

Agreed!

Are you buying or building. Mine is an K20a swapped EK hatch. Plenty of awesome stuff as a compliment but I would lean towards something lighter and more handling oriented, you already have the strait line hit you like.

E30 M3

Correct answer: anything that breaks down frequently enough that you regret it and drive the Tesla instead.

I traded in my Miata for my M3. I loved my Miata and do not regret trading it in at all. The M3 is far superior in many ways but power is the biggest differentiator. When it comes to mechanical (manual) there are so few options these days. Of them, I think the Porsche is a damn fine way to go. You get the combination of refinement and power without spending >$200k.

I was debating between the M3 and the C8 Corvette. I know. Odd comparison/choice. In the end I got the M3 as it was just as quick off the line, $25k less, and much more practical. The C8 looks and sounds so good. It is a very beautiful car to me. If I were to get a second car it would be the Corvette. But I say Porsche above because the differences between the vette and the M3 couldn't be any larger. Whereas the M3 and the Porsche seem to compliment each other.

Yup...emotional choices...but that's cars for ya.

Go take a MSF class. And go get a bike. The blue bike is 321cc beginner bike. The white bike is a 660cc Triumph. Both fun bikes. The white one is just as fast as my Model 3.

C8 corvette

I would say either a C8 Corvette or a Porsche if your budget allows.
