Default Selling My S

Well guys, im selling my S. I have decided to buy a E36 M3. It already has a few upgrades, including suspension mods, and a few engine mods. Im getting it for a very nice price, so i cant pass it up. I just realized that i need something else. I love the S to death, and will probably regret this, but i need something that suits my needs right now. I have a few financial reasons for doing this, and with the M3, my payments will be cut in half basically, so its really going to help out. Plus the S is my only car, and i need something that im not going to be scared to drive everyday, including this winter. And for a daily driver, the S is getting to be too small for me and i just have the need for something a little bigger. The M3 still has the power, plus it has torque that the S doesnt, so i think it will be a good replacement. I am still going to be active on the board, and will still attend meets (if its ok with everyone else, haha), besides i did pay the 20$ membership fee, so i might as well get my moneys worth, haha Anyways guys, it has been great, and thank all of you for everything.

P.S. Anyone know of any good bimmer forums?
Also, almost forgot, im looking at Roja Boys sti as well

Poindexter owns an M3 as well. He should chime in about the BMW forums. Congrats on the upgrade? ( naahh....)

I already contemplated selling the S this summer for a E46 M3 aswell, but I decided against it. I bought a suv this summer instead and kept the S.... too bad it's not sticking around after next year..... It will be replaced by 6 more cylinders on top of the 4 already in it and an additional 6 liters.... yummmm

That car is freakin awesome. I still remember one pulling on me on 495 a few months ago. Just the sound and speed of that car is amazing.

Coupe or convertible?

I've become a totally BMW person. This friggin' M3 I have has converted me. I am leaning heavily toward a new 335i myself right now, so my car may be for sale around September.

You'll enjoy the M3 - even the E36 models are still way ahead of some new cars in technology, and there is nothing like European (with BMW and Porsche leading the pack) refinement

The best place for M3's is http://www.m3forum.net - it isn't S2Ki, but there is all the information on your car you could ever want in there.

Bimmer > STi in my opinion.

Yea ive actually been checking out m3forum.net. Its a pretty good site, but definitely not as good as s2ki. Its going to be a tough transition. Ive owned nothing but Honda. My friend actually works on and races Porches. He also works on other German cars, so he will help me out along the way, lol. No more JDM for me, now its EDM!!

As long as you still hang out on S2Ki it isn't so tough

The car is just a car, but people are the most important thing
