The loss of my beloved 850 T5-R still stings but I found a replacement.

I am the proud new owner of an E36 M3.
- Black with black interior
- 4 doors
- automatic
- 172k miles
It needs a couple preventative upgrades and a few touch items but I like it.

I don't completely trust it yet though. It threw a CEL this morning. I've already ordered a scan/reset tool.

Pics will come soon.

The V8 RX-7, that I just bought and that was involved in the same accident, was pronounced totaled today. I am doing a buyback on it.

So is the automatic version called an M3/4/4?

How does it look?

I just saw one of these for sale at a local lot yesterday: we miss the one we sold tremendously. Congrats, they really are great cars.

Great car even with the missing pedal, bmw did a good job on the M3 Auto programming.
