I've actually come to the realization that those older crops of M's are the most satisfying. My cut off is essentially at the E92 M3. I'm in fact content enough with what I have that I just put down a deposit for a 2016 Tundra to use as my DD and workhorse. The saying they don't make them like they used to definitely stands. I think the golden era of cars, at least for me personally ended with cars designed in the early 2000s.

Its a money pit.
BE prepared to replace the RTABs Early 95' builds had valve spring retainers that were "weak". Cooling system conversion/upgrade (water wetter/fan clutch delete/t-stat upgrade if you plan to actually DRIVE) the car. Engine mounts are probably shot. Check F&R upper struts.. rears for clunks and fronts for new welds. Check the guibo; for chunks missing. Pull the rear taillights and check for rust. PS pump is line is absolutely sweating or leaking. I had one. Turner stage 3 kit; cams w/injectors and headers. Evey older ///M3 has issues. I am convinced its part of their character. Sort of love hate. The game changer is when BMW converted to electric fans. |
