The Elise is so light, some consider it a big boy's toy. Perfect track car if you're the kind. Note that if you're looking for a luxurious interior, the Elise isn't it. The 2 aren't exactly in the same category (sports car vs. GT). you shouldn't have problems looking for a used M3 with a good price.

Depends what you are after.
The Lotus accelerates faster handles better and will give you more thrills. But it only has two seats a hard suspension ride and is not very practical.
The BMW gives you seats in the back a nicer ride and is a lot more practical. I would take the Lotus but I like an uncompromising vehicle. The M3 is definately the way to go if you don't go to trackdays, or you spend most of your time driving in the city.

I only debated this comparable situation myself...i grew to become into debating a 2011 mustang GT and a 2004 Bmw M3. i offered the M3. motives...the M3 value somewhat much less (somewhat), It handles particularly, and it has a greater residual fee. For 2011, the mustang grew to become into speedier, yet once you're between the 2005 and 2006 mustang gt....the bmw is speedier and could cope with better. The BMW could have greater upkeep costs...except you have a solid interior reach keep...the dealerships are brutal.

BMW M3. I've owned a number of BMWs and they are fantastic cars. The M3 is a hoot to drive. You'll love it.

BMW is more practicle
Lotus is more of a real sports car and will handle better
Lotus is more unique
I'm not sure which I'd pick either.. I'd have to test drive

BMW M3 I used to own one and it will eat up just about anything you come across on the rd.
cobras, vettes, NSX, supra, RX7, 350z.......it doesn't matter they can't keep up with an M3!
