If you want fun i was very impressed with a manual 330i and the e46 M3 CS is very high ranking in the fun v affordability stakes but you do attract the higher insurance, warranty, tax and servicing costs.

If you like the way the 335i drives is the perfect blend of everything and with a remap it's f-in ballistic.
Amen.

And the 335i can be had in a manual - if you want full driver involvement.
