It's an E36 M3 3.2 NA manual. Probably a coupe, but sedan verson was also available at that time.

Was it one of the few Euro-spec ones that came to Canada?

If it is your very lucky! Some Euro-spec models were sold in Canada and had about 20 more hp than the regular ones.

The car is a beut, I wouldn't touch a thing!

Do you mind disclosing how much $$$ went to Acura for this? Were you able to get any sort of warranty - this is what originally kept me away from older Autobahn beasts?

Congrats on a trully great purchase!

Don't think they're bi-xenons since there's an inner light which is most likely high-beams.
They are nice though.

Nice man! but what happened to your 3???

Mr. Dalvin
08-11-2007, 11:42 AM
nice ride!!! dammit, i need to get back into an M3. driven them all (except for the newest one, of course) and i'll have to say that the e36 is the one that gets me. don't know why, it just does.

have fun with it and congrats!

now drop in a 3.64 or 3.73 diff in there already!!! an amazing mod that, imho, gives the best bang for the buck.

more pics please.

Is that your M3 in your avatar pic? Got any more pics of it?

I don't think I'll be changing the diff - it's geared pretty short as it is and does 3500-4000rpm on the highway.
