vinny, that was between your car and an E46 M3 and youve never driven an M3 to tell the difference.
Between importing an EVO VII (unless that was a typo) or getting a E36 M3 i'd do the M3 hands down. you can get it for a good price and put the extra money into it. People dont realize M3s are quick. Personally i'd look for a good deal on a E46 M3 they destroy.

M3 impracticle? The new E46 M3 is much more prestgious than the Evo VII (no disrespect to the Evo legacy, which in itself probably has more "pop culture" popularity than any car on the planet). The M3 also has more comfort too.

I love the EVO VIII and am considering buying an Evolution IX as a second car (after i build my car to a full blown JCW "toy". I don't consider my MINI a car, it's more of an over-sized toy lol).

Anyway IMHO for the price you pay with the M3 it still looks like a "BMW" where as the EVO has that "what?! is that an EVO!" effect.
