      masterpiece of aesthetics yes, design, no its a horrid design, rusts easily, leaks easily, radiator hoses have plastic clips that turn brittle with age and suddenly pop off and blow your engine to name a few, design wise its a nightmare, but damn it looks good and has great performance

    I love my US e36 M3 coupe. You nailed a lot of reasons, styling being the biggest. The e36 looks so cool and the e46 looks like a bar of soap.
    I also much prefer the e36 interior, it feels ergonomically perfect and they don't wear as poorly as e46 interiors which all feel cheap to me.
    The e36 also a bit more raw and exciting to drive, the lack of refinement makes it more visceral. I have driven a few e46 M3s, they are great cars and do perform better. However my heart gets pulled toward the e36 every time.

  • @DonBMW
    @DonBMW 8 лет назад +5

    Nice Video! I'm in the U.S. and drive and E36 M3 sedan 5 speed. While it only has ~250hp it is an awesome car to drive and is a nice looking car. When I purchased it I considered the E46, but I was not willing to risk living w potential frame damage common on the E46. Currently the price of the E46 and the E36 in the U.S. are about the same.

    Don't worry, I did the same. I paid a premium for a 37k mile 1999 M3 in Estoril (US Spec) over the E46 which I could have easily bought for the same money or less because of 2 things; 1. this was the car that I wanted in high school that got me into the brand 2. I have not seen another around in as good of condition. E46s are all over the place in the US.

    What any e36 desperately needs is a quicker steering rack. Get one from the late e46 330i or Z4 M, swap it in (it's plug&play btw), get a good alignment then witness the biggest transformation of your car. It sharpens everything and it makes the car feel lighter and somehow younger without losing that driving feel that makes e36s great.

    I couldn't agree more Alex, I love the E36 chassis my godfather owned a '98 5 speed manual Alpine white E36 M3 coupe on LTW wheels just like yours for about 10 years and I fell in love with it, he just recently sold it and is planning buying an E90 M3. For my first car I just recently bought a '98 5 speed E36 328i sedan with the optinal sport package from the factory and I couldn't be happier it's so torquey that it will throw me back in 1st, 2nd and alittle in 3rd, I have even done some roll races from 35mph *in Mexico* with my good friends stock Subaru 2004 WRX that has a 5 speed manual and I kept up right along side of him. E36 gang forever!

    Alex, you do realise your driver's side front wing is aftermarket? Look at the placement of the indicator on both sides. On the passenger side, it's against the wheel (correct), on the driver's side, it's against the door. It's clearly visible in this vid. I've seen this more than once.

    I made the same decision last year, I do know the e46 m3's are awesome - but my 2 reasons (outside of your correct looks and noise reasons!) were 1. replacement parts - for the e36 M3, although rare in full car form, parts are a plenty and SOOOOO much cheaper than the e46 M3. And - 2. Classic car insurance!!! Mine is a 1995 s50b30 - and I pay £198 full comp a year!!! Who doesn't love that??? Also, mine is black, which, sorry is the only colour to have your M3 (Sorry Colin!) - if White is not your 1st choice... White of course is the best of all - especially in e30 / e36 guise...

Even though it was brand new at the time and everone else thought it was cool, that M3 left a void in my heart. Now I realise that I want one. Shit...

    Well, these E36s are really awesome! I have a '96 328i saloon with manual transmission (German Spec, living in Brazil), used to be a garage queen. I have the car for about one year and a half, put 8,000 miles on it and now the car has 42,000 miles (67.000 Km). It rides like a new car, just refreshed suspension, brakes and cooling. It's awesome, even being 20 years old now (almos my age!). Keep your E36 M3 Evo for life, Alex! You are annoying, but we can pretty much ignore that if you keep loving your M3! Cheers

    I actually agree on the looks because I do the E36 design is better but given the fact that the E36 here in the US as you said only had 250 HP, I think when I eventually go after one (because I've been interested in M3s for a while) I'm gonna grab an E46.

E36s are also way cheaper than the E46 here cause we got the neutered engine and they are pretty common (relatively).

I only like the trueno because I like pop up headlights otherwise I wouldn't care about it because you can get faster (or similar powered)70s cars with rear wheel drive for cheaper and it would not be wedge shaped(it was an 80s thing) while being lighter.

    In the States, it's often better to get the 328i rather than the M3. Since it's far cheaper in certain areas, and the power difference isn't too much of a problem. Plus you can get M3 trim pieces and suspension components.
