if you pull up to neiman marcus valet in a stock e46 m3 thats in pristine condition, then its legit parking next to AMGs, Maseratis that usually park in front of neimans

wtf? are u serious?

Hat green one is a limited edition GTRm3 that only came in BRG for UK models. Either the GTR or Evo M3 I cannot seem to remember. Also if you look closely, the wing is no typical "ltw" wing . Importing a dual vanos S50B32(1999 onrie) and having it installed and brought over is a mere 10k(local shop quote in socal) with a good 321bhp. Better numbers than a supercharger or turbo typically bring and you run into the same smog problems. Say goodbye to e46m3's!

/sigh...

That is a 1995 only, European M3 GT in British Racing Green. It has the M3 GT wing which is the same as the "LTW" wing less the US mandated 3rd brake light.

It was offered to the UK market (50 RHD) and Euro market ( LHD).

The M3 GT Coupe was a limited-edition mainland Europe only edition of which 356 were made, 50 further M3 GT Individuals were made in right-hand drive for the UK market. All built in 1995.

Famous for being British Racing Green with a Mexico Green interior - a peculiar choice when the traditional German national racing colors were white with red numbers.

The BMW M3 GT was a homologation series special built to allow the E36 M3 to compete in the FIA-GT class II, IMSA GT and international longdistance races.

The one I pictured is located in Luxemberg and is LHD, Twin Turbo'd, and lots more.

School me on what turbo kit I should be looking for?

Brand?
Cost?
Power?

AA turbo cars don't make that much power...

Technique Tuning (TT) Stage 2 kit get a lot of positive reviews and makes seriously good power (450whp+). There really isn't any other solid turbo solution maker that I know of (yet). Building your own kit with manifold work from 666 fabrications and having NickG tune it will yield much more power.

Active Autowerks don't make too much power but aren't they reliable?

Active Autowerke is a good company. They've been doing this for a long time now and they have the equation down. They will give you usable and reliable power. They're not cheap, though. I believe their kits are around $10K. I'm sure that you can piece those things together and have them just do the tuning as well.

I don't care. I don't like their kits, or support.

Look for a 97 blue 4dr e36 m3. You'll be the ****!!!!

Those are the best rims -__-

I will be purchasing a set of BBS RS wheels if I do buy the M3.....

Evo is being sold on Friday and I need to go test drive the 95 M3 that I found....

They also have an 01' LSB M3 with 143k miles and they are asking $13,900 for it.... Something is fishy about it because the seats look brand new and its got a lot of miles on it...

Correct; for performance with decent looks, they are outstanding rims. They are however not the best looking for the E36, and if I wasn't enjoying the performance aspect so much, i'd be running BBS CSLs (again), or LM's, or CH's.

Just picked mine up last week for $3800.

My bad bro. Completly thought you were talking about a different car, I didn't even bother to click the link. This E36 is money.

It's a '95, it's an auto, and has some rust.

Already have a tranny lined up, and I'll be overhauling the whole suspension soon (or whenever I have extra $$). Basically doing maintenance until the car is driving 100%, then focus on the looks.
