Hey there...visitor from e39 board on Roadfly. Have driven a 97 540/6 for the last 5 years. Love the car but am kinda getting bored with it. Was thinking bout a e46 M3, but the '01s are the only ones in my price range, and thats still about 30-31 k once I get an extended warranty..so then I started thinking bout the e36 M3 cause I love it too. And if I can get a clean one for around 20k, I save 10k. Have several questions I'll list in numerical order so answering them will be easy.
1. How much performance, handling, and body flex difference b/w convertible and coupe?
2. Anyone a previous 540/6 owner who moved to the e36 M3. What are your thoughts? 3. What is reliability like and what are the common issues and problems on the '99 M3. I've had all the big stuff go bad on the 540 and fixed it (AC system, radiator, expansion tank, ball joints, gaskets, etc..)
4. How does the e36 compare w/ the e46 M3.
5. What options should I look for on a '99.
6. Is an aftermarket warranty even worth it for a '99 car or should I just take my chances?
7. What kinds of upgrades are common for the '99 M3 for performance and handling?
8. What's the price range for a clean '99 and what would the corresponding mileage be?
9. Anyone got a '99 in silver or blue for sale??
email me at ishah1@gmail.com if you have one for sale..thanks
