Till the E36’s rear sub frame tears out of the body, The local shop has already seen two such cars with this problem. And those cars where bone stock. Look on Bimmer.org for more info.http://bimmer.roadfly.org/bmw/forums...ural&o=default

Yo, dat aint be ironic homey. It's a coincidence

BMWs are awesome...but they're VERY expensive to rebuild, or build up in either case.

If you like it though - go for it. for sure.

I dont really like the E36 thought...

And as for the E30 I think the reason i like it so much is that it was the first car i ever bought. I do however think that my feelings are blinding my judgment... which i am not used too, so I have decided that unless i find a GREAT deal i will be putting that idea on hold until i get enough money to buy a E30 M3. Thanks for everyone opinion though.
