My new M3 . . .

. . . well new to me.

At the end of March I bought my first house, and as a result I had to let go of my baby, my E92 IB M3 (6MT) (but she went to a good home, and she will be mine, again, oh yes she will be mine again). My friends and family finally convinced me it was better to OWN a house than to LEASE a car. oh, I guess

My budget is completely different from what it was so I've been taking the last few months to find the right dialy driver to fit my budget, wants, needs out here and after a few months of searching I've found it.

say hello to my "new" 99 E36 M3 Convertible! I know it's not in the right forum but I did have an E92 and post a lot on here so I thought I'd share it with you all. Probably won't see me around here to much for quite sometime (not till I get my E92 back).

These are just some quick iPhone pics I took, thanks

And here's a link to my "old" 08 E92 M3

You made the right decision by making your home purchase the priority. Even though you had to sell your E92, your E36 is still a nice ride. You'll be back in an E92 soon enough!

Wise decision!


It is the best time to buy a house now. I decided to sell my townhome and purchase a single family home. Buying a house can be the single best financial decision you make if done at the right time.

Congrats on the new house.

always a wise decision to get rid of a depreciating asset for one that appreciates.

You'll have another one soon enough.

You made an excellent decision and hope you'll be back in an E9X M3 soon. Meanwhile, enjoy the E36, it's still a jewel!
