    Techno-violet is a beautiful --- but polarizing . . . color, just by itself

    Last one I saw was at a Dealer --- with a 'pumpkin' interior . . . an almost sales-proof combo . . .


    . . . but prolly the most valuable


    I'm not a big fan of the US-market e36 M3, in general, but, years from now? --- these cars 'll be worth something . . .


    . . . especially in this color

    Id love that combo for a street car.......

    I am in market now, but for a nice honest car to make into a track day ride.

    I agree,....euro car is a beast,.... but nice US cars will get 20 -35 all day long in the coming yrs.......its hard to find ones that werent chewed up/modded to hell by owners w / no real funds or knowledge....lol

    There were 469 manual-transmission Daytona Violet M3s made, of which 301 had Dove Grey leather.

    My '98 M3 needed work when I bought it with 53k miles- what work has been done to this car?

    I'd also recommend sourcing a set of either matching side markers or going back to stock amber with the turn signals and tail lights. The side markers are obviously the least expensive choice and are still readily available from OE suppliers at good pricing- $14.50 for the left and $14.25 for the right. P/Ns are 82-19-9-404-391 and 82-19-9-404-392.

    CPRSteve~ Thank you for the info on my 95 E36 M3, yes the side markers were change by the previous owner and changing it back to original was always in the cards. will definitely source these out.

    Regarding work done, other then newer tires were install and an oil change, no modification have been done to the car, other then yes the markers were change, otherwise its bone stock. Feel free to send me a PM if interested and can go more in details..

    Thanks.

    Yeah-yeah-yeah --- I know-I know . . .


    . . . + 'rare' can connote 'ugly'



    But the color reminds me of my 1st car
