I know the E30 is the vintage BMW to have

But this E36 does it for me. When I was in high school, the car I really lusted after was an E36 325i with a 5MT. Well, maybe a 325is with a stick, which is probably one reason I’ve bought two modern BMW coupes. In addition, I wanted an alpine white BMW with a beige interior, which is exactly what this is.

I know that the E36 gets shunned in some BMW circles, but I really like it.

I really need to get a house and a place to park a few BMWs.
