What year is your M? Options? Colors? I am still infatuated with that car.

Web, it's a 98 M3 Titanium Silver fully loaded. I just can't get myself to trade or sell her. I think I know deep down I am going to keep her and still get the Evo.

EvoM3, I was thinking e46! My bad... hmm for an e36? I dunno... I'd still have issues if I were attached to it like you are. My 330 was a lease so I would have to have given it up in 10 months anyhow.

Nova, thanks!! It's definitely the good life.

Congrats! Now just check it for body rust, loss of power and cutting out over 5k in wet weather, check for water in the intake piping after driving in rain, protect the intercooler's weak fins from damage, cover that driver's side rear wheelwell front arch from stone chips, wear golf gloves when you drive so your steering wheel doesn't erode away, don't rest your arms on the mouse-fur armrests so they dont' wear away, remove the restrictor and replace the rubber clutch line with SS braided line, and don't forget to get 5th gear replaced and notation of the deceleration noise made at the dealership so if Mitsu ever actually does a recall like the wiring harness insulation one, you're supposedly covered by it even though they will refuse to replace anything because you race and abuse your car. And take your plates off if you DO go to the track and always go easy on the clutch.

You forgot to remind me not to drive the car too, don't want that clutch slipping at 1k miles!

Yeah man, I know the Evo is a hands down much better all around performer than the E36 M3 but I am sooooo attached to this car. Probably when I test drive one I'll change my mind. I'm gonna give my local dealer a call.

Good luck man, you will love it for sure especially since you're used to the hardcore e36 ride compliance.
