3 cars off the top of my head with more HP in 1995:
Supra 320hp
Z 300hp
Corvette 300hp

I have one and I agree, by today's standards its pretty meh. I can only speak for the US versions but my E46 M3 was 2x the car.

I love me some Cammisa but clicks sell and I'll leave it at that...

Doug seems like someone you wouldn't want to leave your kids around.

My wife and I missed our last e36 m3 that I sold a few years ago and we picked up a clean On my way! Late last year to fill the void. But now, I feel like the car is pretty meh but looks great.

Stop being mean to Doug. He is a special guy that has found and fully exploited his niche and brings the armchair Everyman a little bit of joy in a small way.

Let's face it. All of us on this forum are somewhat special in our own way and a little bit outside of "mainstream/normal".

… ok. You may now resume vitriol.

More power to him. I got nothing against the guy, personally. He actually reminds me a lot of myself. But I realize I do not have the personality to make videos starring myself for other's entertainment.
