The performance or build quality needs no explanation, also the appearance must be quite familiar to every living creature on this damned planet.
Owning one is not cheap, however tha car itsself is reasonably priced, its a hell of
a gas guzzler, and cuz' of the age, parts are likely to go wrong,( but never the engine!)
Fun Factor - I guess letters cannot really tell, requires strong self control not to speed around on every open road...Jul 17, 2010

Performance is not the best, but the straight six one of the best sounding.
Solidly built, heavy &strong. Looks wise its untouchable, havnt seen another that
gets as much attention. Puts a massive smile on your face, even though it drinks
like an alcoholic. Apr 01, 2010

Classic BMW build quality, fantastic handling (as long as there's no snow) and the sports suspension gives a fantastic feel to an already pokey engine. Great boot size and the compartment is a dream to sit in, nice touch with the electric bucket seats that adjust to grip you snuggly in position.Jan 08, 2010

Performance was very good, the build quality was exceptional. Didn´t had any repairs in all of the years. The cost of ownership (gas) was acceptable, while the funf factor was really very good. So overall the car was worth all the moneyJul 17, 2009

Quite simply its a classic. Well, an M3 of that era is a *real* classic, but this is more realistic for a first car. its lightweight and modified with aftermarket shocks, springs, sticky tyres and lightweight racing wheels (boring the non technical people by now) to out-handle most cars half its age (its 21, two years my elder) and is a real driver's car. You cant make others understand the passion until they've given it a thrash down a twisty road. Its fantastic. Jul 17, 2008

Interior: Basic
Exterior Styling: Box type design. Looks sporty with the M3 sports Kit
Performance: Quick acceleration with the 'S' more on. Can outrun most of the cars on the Highway
Overall Impression: It's a great car. However needs some attention under the hood especially with the engine cooling system under the hot desert sun.Jun 13, 2008
