Anyone know where to get copy of the September 1997 issue of Car and Driver, the one that named the M3 best handling car at any price? We need to pool our resources and find us some. If anyone knows where to find one please let me know. (I think it was the 09/97 issue)

I know my neighbor has every one since the 90s..
I know he isnt coughin any up but they are cool to look at
I have seen the one you're talking about
And what's Fonzie like?
I am pretty sure you can get in touch with Car&Driver directly to request a back issue.... however I'm not sure how far back you can go, and I'm sure it's probably fairly pircey.

And what's Fonzie like?
Yeah.... unfortunately I don't have the issue anymore, along with about 100+ that got water damage when the storage shed they were being kept in colapsed during a crazy rain storm and ruined nearly my entire collection of about 10 yrs worth of various car mags.Man that sucked!

The article from the magazine has been scanned many times and linked to a bunch, I used to have it bookmarked.
edit: I didn't realize kornkid pasted the whole article, so I'll erase my picture of the weight distributions.

yeah, i have a copy too. a few months ago my wife found it sitting out and asked if she could throw it a way (I have a few too many car mags). She got a polite 'no' on that one.
Maybe we should all just memorize the M3 section from that article. Kinda like memorizing the Pledge of Allegiance.

I r jealous. Can you take pics of the articles about the dinan tuned cars?
I also have the original brochure from 95.
