It made me dizzy and made me think impure thoughts about reciprocating masses.

Speaking of which, why'd you change yours?

1st gen M3?

Yep. 1990 E30 M3. Hopelessly outclassed these days by far more plebian automobiles, but she is still a blast to drive. It was my daily driver for years, but when the baby came along... well, let's just say that a compromised homologation special is not the ideal perambulator.  The important thing to realize with such a wonderful  toy is that if you get rid of the toy, you may not ever see it again. This applies to cars, boats, airplanes, girlfriends, whathaveyou. So I kept it and bought something reasonable.

It's truly a silly car, especially for where I live (hypercrowded North Shore of Boston), but how many E30 M3s are you going to have in your lifetime? Besides, I think it'll be a great car for my daughter to learn the racing line with, don't you agree?

Absolutely!

Who knows, you could have a budding Kathryn Legge or Danica Patrick there............

Everybody here has one they wish they'd kept I'll bet .................................(car, not daughters  :D)
