    I love my US e36 M3 coupe. You nailed a lot of reasons, styling being the biggest. The e36 looks so cool and the e46 looks like a bar of soap. I also much prefer the e36 interior, it feels ergonomically perfect and they don't wear as poorly as e46 interiors which all feel cheap to me. The e36 also a bit more raw and exciting to drive, the lack of refinement makes it more visceral. I have driven a few e46 M3s, they are great cars and do perform better. However my heart gets pulled toward the e36 every time.

When I purchased it I considered the E46, but I was not willing to risk living w potential frame damage common on the E46. Currently the price of the E46 and the E36 in the U.S. are about the same.

    Don't worry, I did the same. I paid a premium for a 37k mile 1999 M3 in Estoril (US Spec) over the E46 which I could have easily bought for the same money or less because of 2 things; 1. this was the car that I wanted in high school that got me into the brand 2. I have not seen another around in as good of condition. E46s are all over the place in the US.

    What any e36 desperately needs is a quicker steering rack. Get one from the late e46 330i or Z4 M, swap it in (it's plug&play btw), get a good alignment then witness the biggest transformation of your car. It sharpens everything and it makes the car feel lighter and somehow younger without losing that driving feel that makes e36s great.

    Alex, you do realise your driver's side front wing is aftermarket? Look at the placement of the indicator on both sides. On the passenger side, it's against the wheel (correct), on the driver's side, it's against the door. It's clearly visible in this vid. I've seen this more than once.

    I made the same decision last year, I do know the e46 m3's are awesome - but my 2 reasons (outside of your correct looks and noise reasons!) were 1. replacement parts - for the e36 M3, although rare in full car form, parts are a plenty and SOOOOO much cheaper than the e46 M3. And - 2. Classic car insurance!!! Mine is a 1995 s50b30 - and I pay £198 full comp a year!!! Who doesn't love that??? Also, mine is black, which, sorry is the only colour to have your M3 (Sorry Colin!) - if White is not your 1st choice... White of course is the best of all - especially in e30 / e36 guise...

    I couldn't agree more Alex, I love the E36 chassis my godfather owned a '98 5 speed manual Alpine white E36 M3 coupe on LTW wheels just like yours for about 10 years and I fell in love with it, he just recently sold it and is planning buying an E90 M3. For my first car I just recently bought a '98 5 speed E36 328i sedan with the optinal sport package from the factory and I couldn't be happier it's so torquey that it will throw me back in 1st, 2nd and alittle in 3rd, I have even done some roll races from 35mph *in Mexico* with my good friends stock Subaru 2004 WRX that has a 5 speed manual and I kept up right along side of him.

    Well, these E36s are really awesome! I have a '96 328i saloon with manual transmission (German Spec, living in Brazil), used to be a garage queen. I have the car for about one year and a half, put 8,000 miles on it and now the car has 42,000 miles (67.000 Km). It rides like a new car, just refreshed suspension, brakes and cooling. It's awesome, even being 20 years old now (almos my age!). Keep your E36 M3 Evo for life, Alex! You are annoying, but we can pretty much ignore that if you keep loving your M3! Cheers
