21 driving a E36 323i Sedan, purchased in the summer as my second purchase and love it to bits. Something about the styling, drive and feel of this BMW is completely unique to other modern cars! I hope the reliability goes in my favour with it being a real low milage example
Great video!😀 Absolutely love my e46 330ci, I don’t reckon anything can beat them for value at the moment!
There is a big difference between E36 throttle cable and E46 pedal-by-wire. Nothing can compare to the analog, unfiltered feel of a throttle cable imo
I'll be honest not a BMW fan but fantastic content as always
It’s be the E46 for me. It’s just that bit more modern and I think it’s from a high point in BMW design (E46, E39 and E38 all well proportioned).
Purchased an E46 330i ci sport / manual in February this year as a daily driver (E39 M5 is a garage queen)
Bought if for £3k with only 81,000 miles on it. Have invested over 2.5k in preventative maintenance like the cooling system + repairs and cosmetic upgrades. It's now a stunning car with zero rust and absolutely flawless condition...and i'm obsessive about detailing. Love this car as much as the M5
nice low mileage example they are great cars.
E36 for sure.
I have owned one, and compared to every E46 I have driven (lots : I'm in the motor trade), they are so much more 'raw' and give a better driving experience imo.
Is yours a genuine 328is ? ie does it have the LSD too ? (the 328i as you probably know didn't have an LSD).
Regarding the feeling of restrictive throttle, get an M50 intake manifold on it, it does make a lot of difference, coupled with a Dave F (if you can find one), or Simota induction kit. 30 to 35 bhp extra but also the engine breathes as it was really meant to, without the restriction to keep the power below 200bhp as per the gentleman's agreement at the time (between Mercedes, Audi & BMW). The M52 intake manifold was the thing which ruined it as a performance engine.
The extra 30/35 bhp feels more like 60/70 bhp because the engine can rev properly (I also had my rev limit raised when I had it mapped for the M50 manifold). It's a completely different beast with those small mods.
The only other mod I had done was the clutch delay valve removed to give a much better clutch pedal.
It's odd how you have gone back to the older models, and I bought an M140i now hahah !
I'm 1 year into M140i ownership, and yes the steering is not anything like as good as the E36, but I actually found the power is so easy to fully exploit, so much in fact, that mines remapped to 411bhp/576nm and I can still full throttle and enjoy it (although I would like a Limited Slip Diff now, to stop me having to feather the throttle coming out of corners).
"Like a beating heart, extracted from a corpse!"
Had both 2 328i sports and a clubsport. The clubsport is noticeably heavier and faster. However E36 better built. My e36 was on 230k (mainly motorway) miles when I let it go for the clubsport.
Can you do a video of underbody detailing? Would be more interesting to see a video on a more ‘normal’ car
Yes please!! Really need this video
Yes it would be a pleasure to see the condition how it is and what can you do wit betailing
I've owned my 328i sport for 14 years now as a daily put 100k on. now clock reading 135k. Now I know how much you paid and they worth, think I might get the paint fixed and small bits if rust sorted out.
When i play racing games, i always take a slow-ish car because i don't enjoy driving the 600bhp supercars as much as a 1997 bmw m3 with a straightpipe. I feel the same way as you jon, the slower and louder the better. 😂😎
E46 was a. Big leap forward from e36 but having owned a 1998 M3 coupe there was something really classy about the e36 it was a model that was designed in the late 1980s launched early 1990s and later ones were a lot better built. The e46 apart from those interior
Plastic issues is a great car . In all forms only
Problem now a little too old for a daily .
KEEP BOTH . Keep both and buy another
M3 do it up and then you have a lovely
Stable. Cheers great story.
Love the video 👍 even more so when you lost your rag with the camera 😂 keep up the good work have a great Christmas mate 🎄
sorry I missed that I need to chop that, I went postal. camera did this about 5 times in a row and I was stopping each time trying to sort. lost my rag with it
My absolute favourite BMW I driven was E30 325, loved that car
What's an E39 325i ??? E39 = 5 Series .
@@MattCSLnut Sorry I ment E30 🤦🏻♂️
@@audriulis ... Ahhh, that make sense now 👌🏼 Nice 😎
I had a very tidy and fully loaded (minus the A/C) 1989 325i SE with the ZF Switchable Auto over a decade ago and loved smoking about in it 👍🏼 Later it became my wife’s Lerner car and she liked it too. Hard to find a tidy examples of E30’s these days without paying top $$$ 🙈🤣
@@MattCSLnut I know , they are expensive and rear nowadays, mine was 1987 or 86 ,325i in silver bough it from germany and I was in my 20s used to spin wheels in 3rd gear
I also remember when I bought my e36 coupe, I fitted control arms from e30 as they were lighter and car handled better if I remember correctly
Get a purple tag steering rack from an e46 m3 for the 328, it'll speed the steering up
Purple tags are from a diesel IIRC. I put one in my E46 m3 and took out a green tag. I think the CSL had a blue tag, which might possibly be the quickest ratio, but I'm not sure. The purple tag feels so much better than the stock M3 rack.
Had an 05 Clubsport a few years back, was a great car - looked like new inside and out, even when I sold it at 178k!
Another great video! I've also caught the bmw bug and before I had one I hated them lol. I have 2 cars, 1 slammed banger and an E46 318Ci N42B20 or should be called N42B2SL0. The things I dislike are the steering feels way too light and a bit of a disconnect from the road with the stock too soft suspension.
Got a carbon Black clubsport , love your videos
Too many E numbers to be healthy. I will have the fish. 😁
Beautiful car!
I need a diagnostic tool for my 1995 N reg 328i. What did you use to get your codes diagnosed and erased?? Also how good was it?? Thanks a lot and Happy New Year!
I can’t find any of these for sale. It’s the same 3 on autotrader all around 6k. Where else are these advertised??
Not a bmw fan but still enjoyed the video 🙂
Great video as always e36 the best a man get get 👏 👍 👌 🙌
Hey man! Another great vid! Funnily enough, i bought one of my favorite cars a couple of years ago (Audi RS4 B7) and i've also noticed that they've become a modern classic (happy accident). I'd love to add an e46 M3 to my little collection
the engine in those B7 RS4 are on another level my friend has one up the road and let me drive it.
@@ForensicDetailing Yeah man, high revving, naturally asperated V8. Really irons out my poor driving lol! Only two real items to watch with the motor too. Carb clean and timing chain
Hi mate What is the best thing for cleaning my roof on my BMW Z4 e85. Many thanks
I had an 330ci, black, brombeer brown interior. it was a beauty.
I just found it extremely boring to drive. traded it for a e36 328i after less than a year.
well sorted, i think the e36 is a way more of an entertaining car to drive.
Seems like there’s something wrong with the e36 engine. Should accelerate better than that
Im not sure, its possible, although it feels roughly right but its the first one Ive owned. I did speak about it with my mechanic and we both felt like it was being held back a bit.
Older cars Im actually driving it. No tech to get out of date. No dealership visits for electronic issues. Any mechanic can work on it. Parts are cheap, The feeling in a newer car is so refined it feels a bit anaethetised by comparison. And like you said before you even get them going your easing off as you've run out of road or my common sense gland goes into overload. My older car is by comparison slow, but feels fast, its still more than capable for the extent of my driving ability and I can be fun within the speed limits.
These cars are money pits ngl love them but taking my clubsport to bmw they gave me 3 sheets of fixes and improvements done 70% of it but now I've gotta rust and rot
Where do u live? Sounds like your example was heavily driven in winter.
@@danielzychniewicz2633 no clue but 150k miles on it so no surprise
@@danielzychniewicz2633 my rust is only cosmetic rust on the wheel arches very minor and underneath bumper is rot overall cosmetically its nice
@@reubthedude4538 good luck with repairing you? Hopefully doesn’t cost you too
Much more to get
Er up to factory condition.
@@danielzychniewicz2633 depends on what level u want it factory new 2000 for front arch trim replacements and other bits. Worth when this car is super rare atm i can deal with alitlle rust
bmw mighty machines old and new but mi dream is the 4th gen Fbody perhaps a V6 firebird.but bmw mighty machines
the old days was simple the multi media system is like a computer more we go in time more depending on the technology its all pro and cons
Yes but they rust like hell, and replace everything, cost you a fortune
Why not both?
doh :) seriously though for me its just the $$$ of getting both sorted. but yer if I had a small holding an a barn and more money generally it would be best to keep both i think.
@@ForensicDetailing You mean if you had the same setup and bottomless pockets and industry connections as Harry's Garage! Here's his BMW E30 M3 video from a few years ago ruclips.net/video/Ld16vZeEyuY/видео.html
lovely car, great channel but you notice he has channel sponsors as well so hes actually making money. in 2021 I will open the channel up to sponser in the same way as the rest of you tube and hopefully start making some money.
@@ForensicDetailing Yeah I did notice the sponsors and the slick tone to his presentation etc. He's an ex-motoring journalist apparently, which HubNut a.k.a. Ian was as well and his channel is well worth a look; very different to Harry's though lol.
Forensic Detailing Channel .... Harry is a farmer and runs a few thousand acre arable farm(and a REAL petrolhead i.e. Cars and bikes)....and took a huge loan/gamble in the 90's to start a car magazine called EVO... you may have heard of it??, he's sold it years ago and now spends his time giving us awesome reviews.
@Egoshredder.... jealousy is a cruel mistress
whats that stuck on your head
Either my nose or my sirrup
1st From the cold country of 🇨🇦 🍁 ❄
228bhp Hardly is classed as performance. Even at the time back in the day a Saab 9000 2.3 Aero was quicker than a 330ci or even a M3.
yer I sort of made the same comment when I posted the video on facebook I said "the performance "level" aspect is debaitable by modern standards"
you could say the full M3 cars are the performance versions. Although I dunno I think for 2002 230 BHP and the vanos system etc.. the 330 was sort of pretty quick. seems slow by todays standards.
Think of the E46 330ci as the M240 or M340 though perhaps as in one step down from the top
@@ForensicDetailing Many years ago i had a 525i SE. Non-Vanos. Think that was 190bhp. It was "Leisurely" i think is the word that would fit. Lovely silky smooth engine though. Very relaxed cruiser.
@@dj_paultuk7052 190bhp in a large, heavy 5 series is never going to be quick matey lol.
Also, The 221 bhp your old SAAB had, wasn't any faster than the 330ci as they were both similar weight, and the old SAAB's handled like boats. I have driven plenty to know, even had the pleasure of driving 9-3 and 9-5 special editions (Carlsson's), and they were also pretty wallowy round corners, where the BMW's were much better (and RWD too).
Lol Saab’s are junk.
@@danielzychniewicz2633 Yeh sure, thats why mine is quicker to 100mph than a Audi R8. Also quicker than my mates 2009 BMW M3 to 100. Even when hes using Launch Control.
Hold on you paid 6k for a 'rough' 328i sport. Damn you bought at a bad time
no mate
@@ForensicDetailing what makes it worth it? Individual? Miles? Because as someone who's been in the market for a while 6k should buy a near problem free car
@@willzpro9093 You tube ;) if its perfect then I cant make much content with it. theres one £6750 manual non vert for sale right now on ebay or AT and its not perfect, none are really. prices are going up as well. this one I just liked, black was important, but I liked the alloys, and it had some other little pros. Its not perfect though this car for sure but I love it. if I do every sell it, I dont think ill loose money on it. But I want to keep this car.
@@ForensicDetailing that's true, aslong as you sell in spring/summer you can't really go wrong. Fair enough
I’ve got a e46 330ci... auto 🤢
The manual ones were double the price at the time,
Great engine and handling though
A known problem with the m54 when driven really hard is the oil pump nut can work it’s way loose. Only really an issue if it lives over 6500rpm
if you dailying then not having to shift gear all the time can be a godsend, thats one of the reasons I got the auto m140. no right or wrong but generally now I go for a manual if its a car I buy.
@@ForensicDetailing it’s lovely for a daily but the gearboxes can be abit iffy but I’m trying to figure it out
I was looking for a manual for ages but they’re either abit skanky, or super expensive. If my gearbox goes bang I’ll do a manual conversion
