I'm joking.
I don't know, celsior was nice. I love the ride, its a laugh in a way, just wofts long with a silent V8 whine.
Though...... I think I will probably stick with my Soarer and shut the heck up for a change.
I annoy myself believe it or not!
Oh hey Joe, havent heard from you in a while! |

Mike, you need a high paying job and a 10 car garage so you can fill it up and not feel like you have to change cars every month  |

Hahaha hey Mark was good to finally meet you the other day.
As we both agreed, Mike cant make up his mind that well.
Hey Mike what happened, have you sold every thing or do you have all the parts still? |

I'm replacing it with a nice BMW again so I'll be happy for a few months or so. Maybe longer?
Gotta try new things.
Sticking with a Soarer becomes so boring. But thats just me.
I've done 6k's and hardly sent anything on mine so I've got my use out of it!! |

Good to put a face to a name, James. Look forward to seeing and hearing your gold Soarer one day
Mike - what are your plans with the headers, or did you get rid of them? |

I sold them to some guy down south a few weeks ago.
I didnt see them being worth it the hassle. Which eventuated in me wanting to sell the car.
I actually saw you the other day Mark. Still go the fast indicators I see, or had a bulb gone? |

Too slow Mark, you should have brought them and put them on your car... |

yep, haven't had the available time to fix them
James- not to worry, there's plenty more of them, I'm in no rush. Besides, I haven't got leave until Easter at the earliest so they would still be sitting around until at least then. |

Just a 1993 325i Coupe in excellent condition.
With a few motorsport factory options ticked, including LSD, suspension and muffler.
8 year NZ owner, in his 60's, an Air NZ aircraft mechanic, and car enthusiast. He has really looked after it.
I took half a dozen for a drive and this one drove BEAUTIFULLY, no comparison to the rest I looked at. Made my soarer feel like a wooden boat by comparison, performance is on par too.
I originally hated the E36's (still hate the 4 doors) but decided to give the coupes a go, this one surpassed my expectations many times over, interior and everything is solid. Just a perfectly owned car.
Finally a proper straight six coupe!
Pick it up on Monday.

Nah, most forums are just lame.

Sounds nice! Will it be cheaper to run than the Soarer though? Guess parts will be easier to find? |
