I have always liked the M3 but have always said "up keep is too much replacing parts is expensive blah blah blah"..but I have a new job at Global Imports BMW and ive been looking at them more and more...Now its come up to the point of where to look and stuff like that (we dont get alot of E36's)...but I think that upkeep wont be as bad since im going to school to be a BMW tech and i get parts on the low it wont be as much of a problem..To be honest I really want a E30 M3 we have at work...completely restored with an E36 motor swap.
