Bought my first car in April 2006, a MY97 BMW E36 328i cabrio.
Car I wanted for many years and finally found one that had all the right options.
Still own it. Daily'd it till december 2018. Now serves as my driveable spare parts box for the M3.
Retrofitted about every possible option it didn't have.
Than in 2013 I found my holy grail in Germany, E36 M3 3.2 cabrio, with under 80k km on the clock. 1/12 in Alpinewhite on black. All the retrofitted options of the 328i, taken out and fitted to the M3.
Taken on the 1st day of ownership
ended up like
M3
