...would be an s52 manual swapped into an e30 with 5 lug.

a lot of people have swapped s50/2's into their compacts. this is just for the 'purists'...kinda...meh....


naw, in my opinion, the perfect e36 m3 is either avus or estoril, coupe-on nicely polished staggered contours. with that cool brown interior.

[E30 Wagen]

so basically it's a ti with some M power? I'd take that.

I'd love to get a 318ti, but i'm not too wild about the m42. They are usually pretty expensive to begin with, too. I would want to swap in a m52.

The "perfect" e36 m3 would be an e30 m3 with all the e36 goodies swapped over.

They can't afford to pay a sub-editor to go through it.

Catesby Jones' 318ti was cooler.

This was my first thought when I read the thread title!

meh one of the reasons i like the e36 is that it doesnt have the archaic rear semi trailing arms...

naw, perfect e36 m3 is a 4dr in techno violet with mulberry gray interior. 8.5 contours all around with first gen AA exhaust. just like the one that has been in my garage since it was new! :)

hey, they are bmw's...all good....well, except the "X" things..

Man, I remember reading about that in Roundel for the One Lap when I was a kid. I feel old lol.

My thoughts exactly. I'm not into the E36/5's, it's just a heavier less attractive body on E30 suspension to me.
