Awesome 321BHP once you hit 6500 revs. Great fun. Build quality, lovely exhaust note.
Scary in the wet. No traction control!
My wife has a BMW Z3, which I drove to collect my second hand E36 M3 EVO. All the way home I drove the M3 normally and changed gear at about 5000rpm. Although the handling and comfort was far superior to her Z3 I was disappointed with the performance. When we got home I took her for a little spin to confirm my disappointment. We joined the dual carriageway and I put my foot down, this time instead of changing gear at 5000 rpm I listened to that sweet exhaust note - Next thing I knew, I was thrown back into my seat and it took off. I had never smiled so much in my life. Try keeping me below 6500 revs now! Fuel consumption... who cares. Tyres... who cares. I smile every time I drive it. Followed a Maserati down the motorway a while ago, he tried to loose me but it was his nerve that got the better of me not his £80000 car.
