1996 BMW M3. 3.2 liter Inline-6, 5-speed Manual Transmission. Silver on Black. Limited Slip Differential, Traction Control, Leather Seats, Heated Seats, Power Seats, Sunroof, Electronic Climate Control.

This car has eveything you need. Its fast and sporty, but comfortable at the same time. Do 155mph and not even know it. This car feels like its on rails while taking turns at high speed, and stops on a dime, lots of confidence behind the wheel. The only con I have is the stock sound system is sub-par and was one of the first thing I changed. There arn't many nice E36 M3's out there, real ones atleast. The car is not meant to be a head turner, but I do get compliments. Great Car.

Pros — Acceleration, Handling, Braking, Visibility, Comfort

Cons — Sound System

Bought the car new in 1996. I will post some of my pictures soon. I had a lot of fun driving the car. Very fast for the year.

Pros — At the time. Speed. Handeling is very good. Shut off the anti slip and have some fun.

Cons — Tires burn off fast. 8 to 12k miles at most. If you don't drive like a grandma and why would you have this car and do that. Tires wear on the outside edge be careful. The inside can be smooth and you won't see it.

Probably the most fun car I have driven. Handled like a dream with the lowering springs, was not the fastest, but was quick and had an awsome powercurve. I loved the exterior looks, and although dated, was really one of my favorite of the true BMW's. Interior was also slightly dated, but the Vader seats were a dream to sit in, and high quality materials wer still used.

Pros — everything

Cons — the cost of owning a BMW
