That's the thing- under the hood it says dakar yellow. But the shade is off. Apparently the previous owner painted it a darker shade of yellow.

No damage. It was stolen once and resprayed apparently. I looked the car over for frame/ bodywork when I bought it. Can't believe I missed the respray, but In my defense it was dark outside.

I already am. I took it on some back roads last night. Almost as much fun as riding a bike.

Thanks!
BBS RS-GT in 18x8.5 +30 front and 18x9.5 +35 rear. Thought about selling it, but when it came time to post the ad, I couldn't get myself to do it. Every time I drive it, it amazes me that a car built in 1995 (17 years ago) drives this well.

I just bought a 2013 328i and I love it but what it really made me realize is that I STILL want an E36 M3. Even $17k is reasonable considering how fun the car is to drive. |

You have a great memory!
Seriously, very nice set up. In the pictures the car looks more "stock" than your list of upgrades would suggest. ( I like that ). Thanks for posting and OP, thank you too! |
