anyhoooo

i dont like them, and would defo have a e30 m3,...but not the e36 m3....

IMO they look bland, and only seem to know people with them that drive like big girls and never come close to the potential the car has,...and as i said, bought it because its a bmw m3...

fuck sake,.....blinkered.....

you can get anything cheap, just gotta look,.....


they come up a lot, albeit shit ones, but still.......and in the same respect, you can get a e36 m3 for less than 5,...albeit a shit one,...but my point was, who ever it was was saying m3 for 6k, same as a saph....and i was saying the price comparison is bollox. (ie, a right nice saph will get 6k,...yet a right nice m3 e36 will take close to 10k....get it????....

Alright mardy

I'm not blinkered just you're comparing two different cars here.

Ask paul at north yorks about cheap saffs.

either your not reading my post right, your its not clear....though i think it is...

I wasnt comparing the cars, someone else was, and i was saying you CANT compare the cars as they different,...especially price range...

and believe me,...i know about cheap cossies,...
had to view nearly 30 form the tip of scotland to the arse of england to find a mate a mint one,..and he had 8k to spend......

How do you think the E30 was a better car and in what way? Found them tail happy and under powered, but fun but it drove like an old car in comparisson, i.e Scooby, Cossie.

had mine when i sold the cossie,.....probably 3 years ago now....
and thinking back, i prob only had it for about 2 months,..
was buying a house at the time, and it needed bits doing so got rid,...
underpowered compared to stage 3 cossie, lol, but the feel i got was great,...sooo well built....

BUT i dont think id have another,..
far too tail happy, and felt uncontrollable at times...


BUT i dont think id have another,..
hmmm,...just had a min to think, and yes i would,....i fooking love the look of them...would have to be an evo though...

that said, im sure the e36, is a great car, but as said, not into the styling, and have only ever been in one when the owner pootles around,...never ever gives it any,..and now hes a copper, and wants a new golf gti
wtf...
so i suppose my experience of the e36 isnt really valid...

but again, i reiterate.... i prefer the look of the e30....

caarl


edit to say,....my step dads e46 is a different matter,...one of the best looking cars ever, and truely amazing.....

Ironic, you are slating the car one minute and then the next minute going on about its potential

GREAT cars IMHO, Porkie hit the nail on the head a page or so ago.
