    I think maybe some of you are coping with not buying one when they were cheap. I know I am. Been daily driving my 328is manual for over 10 years, 90k miles, and it's been really solid and cheap to run. Currently at 240k miles and it feels like it'll do a million more. So the NA M3 didn't get the the s50, but you're still getting a good 50hp over the 328, along with the LSD, better brakes, suspension, wheels, vader seats, mtech bumpers, etc etc. I think it's a package that proved itself very well, which is why so many got driven to death and now there's hardly any good ones left. The way so many look down their noses at the M3 is the most annoying BMW snob thing among BMW fans.

      Yes exactly.

      Looking back, the reason I liked the E36 chassis in the first place was nostalgia, and also that it reminded me of my E30.

      Now that both E36 are gone, I just have to get rid of all the spare parts in my basement. That's a winter job for sure!

        Christ I've been at the "clear all the e30 shit out of the basement" side quest for a few years and I can't even see an appreciable difference.
        Basically committed to sticking with one e30 because whenever I have more than one, I seem to exclusively work on the shittiest one, and I want to do more lower risk/family friendly off-roady stuff, but now I'm off the deep end with that and still for some reason have another "fun" shitbox that breaks faster than I can fix it.

        I think I need to sell 3 cars but can't decide what to sell because everything is either useful or I like it.

          If you lost all those cars in a fire, what would you miss most?

            We need a list of the cars along with a one-liner about why it SHOULD stay. Then we can tear it all apart.

            3-cars is a good max to stick to (not including Wifeys' 1-car (because they arent stupid like us)

                I'd argue 3 could be even more better-er-er.
                Keep the list but take the [off roading adventure car] and [shit box turd truck to haul shit and parts] can be the same vehicle.
                Unless you want an actual car to offroad, which don't get me wrong has appeal.
                Or you know, that opens up for an actual track-only car, then you're back at 4.

                  I agree, 3 is the ideal middleground. 4 is costly and really consumes space. But if it had to be 2...
                  Would the "going-out" car also be the fun car? Or the off-road car is also nice enough to go out?
