Probably the 33 hotrod, it's the only I can fit into comfortably.... Besides, I saw these being built when I had a chance to see the factory a few years ago and really liked the engineering behind these. I'd love to build the daytona coupe, but I can't even get into the car much less sit in it.... =(

Save your money Rodney and seek professional counseling..................

The E36 models as a whole are starting to age out and unless you are looking to buy a pristine unmolested version for weekends and limited DD duty you are throwing good money after bad IMHO. Find a nice E36 M3 if that is your goal but be prepared to pay top $$$.

The E46 is where you should be looking. Or spend a few more bucks and find a 6 speed E90 2007 / 2008. The 328s are very nice and fun to drive.

if only that were true. in reality i'm out actual money (i paid for the domain, logo design, etc out of my own pocket) and literally hundreds of hours of my time putting it all together. not to mention that i'm building one of the first cars from scratch so i'm a guinea pig in terms of parts, what does/doesn't work, track time to develop it, and so on.
