It’s just about ready for its initial engine break in service! 😜. Great car with a unique color combo. I’ve never seen those colors stateside. Enjoy it!

I have not regretted the e36 328is purchase. I have been enjoying driving it. The gear engagement is really something. A few weeks ago I had the front subframe out, fixed the leaks, replace steering rack, control arms, etc, etc, etc. New kwv1 coilovers are riding great. Apart from a piston slap when cold and a couple areas of rot there's literally nothing wrong with it

I'm not sure what to do with it. But for now it is a fun daily driver. I did a engine flush and it actually kind of rips. Sounds great.

The x5 has been a real mess. Since acquiring it 4 months ago i've worked on it about 120 hours and have driven it about 8.

Maybe after this weekend again in the garage it will finally be good.

No longer Polaris, nor automatic, my original ultimate driving machine is now far from original, but it’s brought me so many miles of smiles…

Freude am Fahren indeed.

48th today..
Another great drive — repetition can be fun.

Took some rollers with the E36 using the Osmo 3. First time I heard the Eisenmann Sport Exhaust and Dinan intake sound outside the car. Not too bad… enjoy!

Absolutely and thank you. I need to try out one of the suction mounts to get some additional angles.

Some amazing cars in this thread. Thought I’d add my humble addition. Only 26k miles on this old guy.

Hagasan41 · 05-31-2024, 03:23 PM

@LAGWAGN Cool tag and car! I’ve been causally throwing around the idea of adding an M coupe to the stable.

Appreciate the compliments. The S54 in this tiny platform makes for non-stop fun. It’s a really special car.

Unfortunately, this one is headed to BaT soon…if they will respond to me.

BaT? No, please. lol… I understand and in fact is where I purchased my E36 M3 from. The prices seem to have stabilized on the Z3’s/M coupes with some fetching decent money. With the low miles and seemingly great condition yours is in, I’m sure you’ll do well. Good luck to you.

😂 Yep, it actually where I bought the car as well. That said, I listed it below ahead of BaT in the hopes a fellow enthusiast would want it and continue the story of this great car.

Thought some of the E36 owners may appreciate some photos of the genuine BMW Motorsport seatbelts I just installed. Doing a couple of other things before I button it back up. Definitely fun and rewarding owning and working on a classic BMW.
