I have driven and owned a LOT of cars for a guy my age.

The biggest smiles came to me in my E36 BMW M3 convertible. Just make SURE you get a PPI. In convertibles there is the amazing 4 seater M3 and there is everything else.

“Mustangs” and the like aren’t even remotely in the same category of ANY aspect of the car, including reliability. This is a car that drives like a mid-engine supercar. It is just breathtaking.

No competition in the used price range of the E36 M3s (can’t vouch for the later models - never had one - they are 8cyls) But don’t take free advice too seriously. Drive and you will see.

And... read Jalopnik!
