Thats almoust $10k difference in price. Besides BMW is comming out with the new 3 series in a matter of months and i did not want to drive a new M3 that looks like and old one in just 6 months. Even though I do miss my clutch. Speedshift and a manual transmision are worlds apart, imo at least. Its an automatic transmission that lets me choose which gear I want. Its not a manual transimssion with a hydrolic clutch like F1 trannys. (thats how it feels at least)

Thats something Id love to get involved in...but seriously, my CRV wouldnt handle the mud pit your trucks would spit back up. That rubicon seems very capable and semi affordable, but id be worried about its on road manners...are those trails open to the public? No rules regulating off road use?
