I picked up this 1995 BMW M3 after finding it on a new car lot where it had been traded in with only 40,000 original miles (still had original tires and was completely stock). When I was driving both the club and pro road racing series in the mid to late 1990s the E36 M3 was my absolute favorite racecar. While I did drive the BMW 325s and Saleen Mustangs in the Speedvision Pro series I would have gladly passed on those to drive one of these in full race trim! So when the opportunity to get this 1994 production year build came along I jumped on it. Now I take it to the track when I am instructing students on High Performance driving and use it to brush up on my own skills, regularly hitting 140 MPH into turn 2 at Seattle International Race (Pacific Raceways). If you get  a chance to own a E36 M3 you wont be disappointed.
Cheers,
