Yeah they are Lamb Chop, mines a 3.0, didnt fancy the gear boxes on Evo models, nowhere near as smooth as a 3.0.
Mind you at 150mph you narf feel the need for that sixth gear

The ones I test drove did, only slightly mind but they werent as smooth IMO of course
Lamb Chop, the 4 door came with pony interiors
, the ones in mine and EIL `s cars are the M Tec " Vader" interior I believe.Thats what put me off buying a convertible, you dont get these seats
You can get them in cloth but they are horrific
PS , You should see how much they go for on E Bay

Now if you get a silver seated one you will get silver seats and center armrest, grey carpets and black dash and lining.
It doesnt look as good mate.
About the convertible though, I was gonna get a one of these a few months back, but what I wanted to do was get two front seats off E Bay then buy the convertible and fit the "good" seats in the cabby
illegal i think cause cabbys need strengthened seats incase of flipping the car over, thats why you cant have vader seats in a soft top.
If im wrong im sure EIL will correct me

Ah yes that does make sense doesnt it, wondered why they didnt use these in the cab.
Im very tempted to get one, I also love the e34 M5.. What do these things cruise like, what sort of revs at 70?
You going to get the EVO back lights?

Yeah, the Evo lights and the steering wheel of the S-T Reg ones as well .
They cruise at about 2800RPM at 70 I think,dont hold me to it though , funnily enough at that speed they feel just like a Cossie TBH, where they are just ready to bite ya head of if you push the pedal that bit more
My next car will be an E46 M3 next year Lamb so I would be careful about buying an E36 cause the M3 V8 comes out in January supposedly so prices will plummet right the way down the range, clean E36`s like mine and EIL`s will not be worth a light TBH, I mean have you seen how affordable the E46`s are, go have a look, 16-17 k and thats before the new one is out.
So yeah if ya thinking of getting one then yeah awesome cars but if depreciation is ya thing then I would spar wide of these
Hope I helped

Nice car is my old wheel on in them pics ....
Mine was a 3.0 e36 m3 in daytona violet with a chip and that was 323bhp
If you get it chipped you will get a fault code that comes up if you plug a fault code reader in but just ignore it ....I did
