    Did I join the dark side?

    or perhaps the broken rear subframe painfull stuff?

    Only one owner (customer actually). Didn't test drive before paying for it. Got it , drove it and felt sluggish and didn't want put down much power. Next day one coil burned, replaced with a bosch unit and fixed the rattle idle.

    Few days later figured I would pull off the MAF and clean it. What a fucking difference...no more DTC in the DME about lack of fuel and cat protection system (limp mode) nor I have to change the exhaust cam sensor like stated the GT1. This thing pull really hard.

        I know there's a huge difference between the euro e36 M3's and the ones the US got, but is there a difference between the e46 M's?

        Sick car btw!

            You'll be back! I bought one a couple years ago and I swear to god all it did was try and destroy its self, my maintenance was dam near $1,000/month and I did all the work myself. I have a Porsche now because I couldn't afford the the M3. there are just to many land mine weak spots. That being said they are absolutely incredible cars.

                Sorry for the poor quality photos...the camera used sucks. At first the wood trim was awfull to my eyes, but in person and driven it for few days you really get use to it and looks very decent and I kinda started to like it;)

                There is just one damn PROBLEM with the whole stuff....you guess:(

                      I always thought they were just like my car. I get one I like and hold onto it for a while. Starts breaking and shit....flip it.
