WTF should I buy (A consolidated list of bad decisions)

With an APR tune you get 400+ hp.

That's definitely something I haven't thought of.  Cheaper than I would have guessed too.  Although they are pretty heavy (3900 lbs)

That would fall under the no totally boring daily driver requirement.


Edit: After looking into the B8 S4 a little, it looks like they run a 12.5 or so with the stage 1 software. Decently quick, but the weight is definitely taking its toll.

My most likely course of action at this point is to keep the M3 and get a 2012/2013 Golf R with the stage 2+ pieces (downpipe, fuel pump, tune). This will also run about a 12.5 or so with about 330whp and it's much lighter. These are apparently also perfectly reliable at that power level as long as you keep up with changing the cam follower every 10k or so. Luckily its a cheap part and only a 20 minute job.

I am open to other options though.
