    Just sold my E36 M3 Evo after owning it for 18 years. Wish I had kept it🤦‍♂️

    This as the later M3 3.2 is still a wet dream to me

    I had a &apos;98 328i Sport in silver with extended silver leather interior, BBS split alloys and an auto box and to this day it is still my favourite car I&apos;ve owned.

    Old 6 cylinder bmws definitely sound much better than the newer ones

    I have a 1996 M3 Convertible with hardtop and Individual Color (Montrealblau metallic) imported from Germany in 2006, and it’s mine since then. These cars became so valuable that I’m even a little scared about using mine properly as I used to do, because for insurances, in Spain, it is just old Junk in case of a total loss. Great cars anyway, despite as I’m getting older, I love more and more my aluminum Jags XJR and XKR.

    Had 1 for years. Great car. There&apos;s an even better balance to the 328i and the M3, and that&apos;s a 328i with the M50 manifold fitted to it. That does take it into &apos;Baby M3&apos; territory.

    An amazing nostalgia review for the amazing ultimate driving machine!

    I used to have a 96 reg 328 convertible and it was a fabulous car. Big wind deflector in the back and it was great to blast it along french A roads and motorways. The engine noise was glorious past 4000 revs. Great video, thanks.

    Great content again. So close to 100k

    Amazing cars and surprisingly easy to increase the power because they had a heavily restricted inlet manifold with very narrow channels. Fitting the earlier 325i M50 transforms the throttle response and engine note and keeps everything looking factory fresh.
