looks like I'm leaning towards an e36 m3 5 speed sedan

but would also like to add e34 and e28 m5's as well. Blown motors ok (couple spare s38's around).

Do it. I love mine. It's so much fun to drive

S50/s52 seems like a good daily driver m motor. It was a bit of effort to dd my euro s50 car, I'd imagine an e46m3 to be similar

Go 330i/xi zhp because not VW.

E46 330i. Even if not ZHP, you can buy the ZHP cams.

Mines my DD. It's great. I have nothing but good things to say about that car.

I also DD a 1995 M3. Can you say chews through tires. Needs new RTABS, but I'm taking care of the vanos/leaky oil pan gasket first.

^DD's two cars, responsible driver by day in the e46. Racist by night in e36.

Exactly. I go to work in the morning in the e46, then go home for lunch and get the M3 and take it to work.

I DD two cars.

^ that is interesting. Will have to look into that. My wife has the 330ci. Solid car save for the subframe recall. Also, don't get the auto it looses allot of power and is not nearly as quick. The e46 also came in a touring.

don't buy a fucking p2 volvo.
their geartronic transmissions are pieces of shit, so are their awd systems.

Their cool cars, I love the way they look, and my family has owned one since new, and we bought it in Sweden.
Just poorly manufactured.
