How can you tell that it's a M3, let alone the model year. ![Laughing](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/laughing.gif)

My friend had a new E36 M3 in high school.
That thing handled so good, it was a blast.
The days when 240hp was doin it.
I personally think one of Bimmers best cars.

Funny isn't it, the E36 M3 got the worst reviews ever for an M car because of the wooly steering and lack of feel on the limit, towards the end years of the E36 they revised a bunch of stuff to improve it however, this left the E36 M3 in europe at least being the most under appreciated and least liked M car ever made.
I went in one around the Norschleife with a friend couple of years ago, that thing had Bilstein Nurburing Suspension and uprated brakes etc, was absolutely fantastic, well sorted car, just shows in my mind what picky bunch the media can be sometimes, that said the media can also pat themselves on the back for improving the cars we drive I guess ?
