In the fall of 1999 I had the pleasure of purchasing a 97 BMW M3. I had always been in awe of the car after hearing many publications rave about its handling prowess and silky smooth drivetrain. I never imagined that I would own a car of this caliber, but that all changed when I made one fatal mistake. I allowed a dealer to hand me the keys for a test drive. Actually, I didn’t want to drive the car, but a friend I had along with me, without my prior knowledge, asked that I be allowed to drive the car. End of story. I now drive an Alpine White M3 and can’t wait to make that last payment.
I quickly realized that the M3 was much more car than I would probably ever be driver. Although I enjoy autocrossing and various other driving events, the M3 has made me realize how far I have to go in the driving skills department. Things happen in a hurry for the uninitiated. I have driven many high powered sports cars, but none have ever moved me or involved me like the M3. I can’t see ever being without one again. Upon purchase, my car had just over 30,000 pampered miles. Not a scratch inside or out. This was my first BMW and I was pretty unfamiliar with them in general. After joining the E36M3 digest, I learned much, and unavoidably changed much on the car. Hence this write-up. Through talking to others, it became apparent that the stock suspension on an E36 M3 is generally shot at around 30,000 miles. Pretty disappointing in a $40,000 car, but somewhat common none the less. Lets just look at it as an “opportunity.” Download free H&R COILOVER INSTALLATION FOR E36 BMW M3.pdf here
