Love it. Thanks for letting me borrow that e46 to visit the Udvar-Hazy museum a few years ago!

I think you still have too many cars and therefore you should sell me the E36.

as for replacement, the answer is nothing. i just have / had too many cars.
Or...and just hear me out here:

S62 engined E28 (by which I mean you buy this E28 and put in the S62).

Hah. Well, I'd probably like driving that a lot more than the E90.

Alternately, an E34 touring with an S62 would be a good client car for when client things start happening again.

What's your guess as to how much that goes for? I seem to have an on-again off-again fascination with e28s

I haven’t really been following the market since I briefly shopped for OG M5s about 15 years ago. But this one seems a bit rough around the edges so might not hit the stratosphere.

In my lust for the E36 I neglected to make a "nice fleet" comment. It is a damn fine fleet.
