          Checked, no such luck! I'll keep my eyes peeled.
          and .. I don't have a year and a half. I certainly don't have patience either! Haha

              whats better, being dead or broke? e30 ftw.
              lol, I've been toying w/ the idea of getting into a e36 M3. My thought process is if anything ever happens to the car I could always swap the motor into my e30.

                after driving an e36 a few times this week...

                im going to have to say an e36.

                it really is a much nicer car. e30s look way better though.

                pros:
                e30 - looks beast.
                36 - mpg, horsepower, refined driving, quiet, calm, excellent 24v growl, cheap 5 lug rims.

                cons -
                just reverse the above list...
                AWD > RWD

                  E36 has much much more mechanical grip then the e30 does.
                  It also has a decent rear end suspension.

                    Someone on here has a quote. I'll say it again.

                    E36's are the Stephen Baldwin of the 3 series family. They barely hold everything together and they only sold a lot because of the popularity of their older sibling.

                    If you buy an E36, good luck with your horrendous electrical woes, bazillion dollar parts, and your computer controlled fucking everything.

                        OP is an idiot. Theres a smiley face in everyone of his posts and quite frankly, its kind of gay and annoying. Secondly, sell your car first and get cash in hand before you decide what your next car will be.

                        Sorry, I had to troll real quick.
