1997 BMW M3 consumer reviews

Most amazing design & look, a balance between civilization and savagry, powerfull drivetrain, nimble & agile, that makes E36 m3 ultimate symbol of BMW's greatness. You get 5 passenger every-happy-day car, with big trunk, heated comfortable seats, nappa leather, OBC & so on... But most important in it is it's power, handling, steering, breaking and feeling you get. In S50B32(EURO) spec m3 you could get even more: 316bhp/258ft-tq, 0-60 5sec, top speed 175mph and more....

I have "four" words for you: This Car Is SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!! You will love this car more than anything else you own. The motor is bulletproof. The interior is eligant/sporty, very functional, and is extremely comfortable, having all of the features and gadgets of a modern 2006 American/Japanese car (keep in mind that this is a car made in 1997) Blows the competition away.... Pretty inexpensive considering the fact it is a BMW engineered rocket. What more do you need. Oh...and did I say that it is blazing fast completely stock. You don't really need to modify this car at all...just put on some race tires and enjoy a fine day at the track. Oh...and the best of all "The Car Is A Chick Magnet" and it gets 22-25 mpg on average. Two Problems: 1.) The black strip trim/molding that goes all the way around the car is not appealing to the eye. You must take these off and paint them the same color as the car. Makes a huge difference :-) 2.) The car has more electronic devices and sensors than I have ever seen before. I mean a plethora of wires and switches that tend to go out here and there. Electrical problems are never good, but the car has NEVER failed me and it is relatively easy to fix them when they pop up. The cars electronics will let you know visually when there is a problem. 3.) Can be a little spendy for maintenance. However, if you find a good local BMW specialist, the prices will be fair and just bring it to the dealer for the electrical issues. The dealer is the only place that can 100% accurately diagnose an electrical problem from my experience. In closing, these are all minor issues. The car is worth its weight in gold and I promise you that you will ENJOY THIS CAR. I also know that you will learn to love investing your hard earned cash to maintain the car. Everyday you will be excited to be behind the wheel of "the ultimate driving machine". It really does live up to the slogan. JUST MAKE SURE THE CAR IS IN GOOD SHAPE WHEN YOU BUY IT.
