For the M purist

1990 BMW M3 2dr Coupe
I've owned other BMWs and this is the "Ultimate Driving Machine" like they say it is. I enjoy driving it around town and long trips both. It has never left me stranded yet. Parts are still readily available too. There are faster & better handling coupes out there, but this is just a fun car to drive. With the price of fuel rising, I think I'll keep her.
Excellent collectable

1990 BMW M3 2dr Coupe
This isn't your run of the mill car.
Even amongst BMW's it is special. Until
you own one the M symbol is just that,
a symbol. Once you experience the car ,
once you own one then you can truly see
how special the M3 series is. This is
one enjoyable car and a pleasure to
own. It is as reliable as an old Benz
but able to mix it up with some of the
best of today's sports … cars. You can
actually live with this vehicle day in
& out. Maintenance is easily bearable.
If your can turn a few wrenches and are
resourceful in parts location you can
even keep cost cheap. There's also a
bevy of information on the net for it.
Overall a fantastic car. I love it.
