Looks good! My friend's brother has an M3 as well; his is white and is completely slammed. They look great when they're dropped down low.

Year? Specs?

mike[piston eater] 09-11-2010 04:18 PM

97 3.2 dinnan intake and chip bought it off original owner an elderly retired man :]

If the price was right I would LoL

Car looks good and lots of luck with it

Easy_E1 09-11-2010 06:56 PM

So gingen Sie und kauften einen BMW. Gut ist es eine nette Änderung. Hoffnung genießen Sie das Fahrt-Mike.

JantzenRX-8 09-11-2010 07:08 PM

Great car! Congrats. Should be very similar to the RX8 but with a little more torque and a superb exhaust note. Best straight 6 evaaar!

Oh okay.

epikeddie 09-11-2010 07:54 PM

Let me know if you're looking for a deal on your coilovers! I work for ModBargains and we carry all the major brands like KWs, Bilsteins, and etc.

Sweet E36 M3! Love the color!

Razz1 09-11-2010 08:07 PM

Wait until you have to pay for repairs.

+1 on that. My parents just got new brakes and rotors on their 745li and it wasn't cheap.

EmperorBen 09-11-2010 09:42 PM

sweet upgrade man hahaha... and yeah, good luck with the maintenance on that ride lol's

moonkid 09-11-2010 09:46 PM

Tweek 09-11-2010 10:13 PM

Will you be taking the FC to 7stock next weekend?:)

shadycrew31 09-12-2010 10:31 AM

BMW's aren't hard to repair, it's a car not a rocket ship. Your might need to take a few extra steps to get something done.

Some parts are more expensive than other parts but its whatever. Keep up with the maintenance and search on the m3 forums.

Personally I would def use an m3 as a DD. Comfortable cars, decent gas mileage, seems like a no brainer to me.

In any event, nice ride man!!!

P.S. Be careful most of the M forum members are dicks.

mike[piston eater] 09-12-2010 12:44 PM

thanks shady and its so true my dads always done everything on his bmws up until my mom got her x5 and thats just cause she has all the dealer maintinance

ME! I had a 92 325is. I now have a 99.5 a4 1.8t chipped. The bimmer was a much better car. Any more photoshoots planned with the new ride :ylsuper:

04_Mica Mazda 09-13-2010 12:28 PM

Mike: sad to see you got rid of the 8, but I can't fault you for going with your choice!

I really like the color!

GL w/her!

Lemme try to reverse-translate it after this butchering by Google (or whatever tool it was) :D:

"So, you went and bought a BMW. Good, it's a nice change. Hope you'll enjoy the ride, Mike"

mike[piston eater] 09-13-2010 02:15 PM

yhanks for the translation i can now say thank you to eazy

SPHINX144 09-13-2010 03:08 PM

Not much of an upgrade, should've gone with a 2004 model and up in my opinion.

mike[piston eater] 09-13-2010 03:11 PM

e46s are nice and all but not in my price range and i just think e30 and e36 m3s were more of a raw feeling and less of the new tech savy shit i think i upgraded in every way more power better gas milage and it still has a neutral handling just with real torque :]

The Reverend 09-13-2010 03:13 PM

yess lets get the rx8 fanbois in here

mike[piston eater] 09-13-2010 03:14 PM

rev knows how i do it

2tone 09-13-2010 03:42 PM

personally, i wouldn't like a car that old (just saying "nineties" scares me lulz!) but any m3 is a nice m3, so overall i gotta say nice pick up :)

mike[piston eater] 09-13-2010 04:43 PM

at least its more reliable then my fc right lol

2tone 09-13-2010 04:44 PM

^ah that is a good point!

mike[piston eater] 09-13-2010 04:45 PM

only thing scarier than the 90s is the 80s 0.o

Gr8Bullet 09-13-2010 05:03 PM

Lookin' good mike! put a turbo in that shiz and you'll be set!

mike[piston eater] 09-13-2010 05:04 PM

trying to keep it a nice daily and a fitment queen but i would like a a vortech supercharger for it

Gr8Bullet 09-13-2010 05:06 PM

haha now you can you can go to MFEST in vegas!

Gr8Bullet 09-13-2010 05:08 PM

That would work well.... my friend has a HPF kit in his M3 its insane...

mike[piston eater] 09-13-2010 05:08 PM

i know lol but probably not as i used to go to alot of euro shows and i dont really like the snobbie people you see sometimes

Gr8Bullet 09-13-2010 05:11 PM

Yeah and they just wanna brag about there cars but its depends on the person but id go for just the event and the cars.... im thinking of going to Mfest next year with my friend....

mike[piston eater] 09-13-2010 05:12 PM

cars are cool and all but it gets boring i like 30 minutes its about the people

Gr8Bullet 09-13-2010 05:14 PM
