I love it. Don't love the gray interior though that was common with the purple exterior.

I/we all knew the answer before even opening the article —BMW makes passenger cars which are then tuned. Like AMG.

Porsche makes sports cars and passenger cars. And while they Sportify the SUVs and Panamera’s —they still make sports cars.

I think it’s cool that the M2 comes close. But it’s a car that begins life boxed in already by the 2 series chassis (heavy) and they can put a bigger engine in, but let’s be honest, this is not BMW’s wheelhouse anymore.

Love the violet on the e36, don't love the gray interior. There was a TV/modena one for sale a few years back. Maybe a 1996? Looked great, but I think it was swapped interior.

TV / Modena is a nice color combo. Modena seems to be extremely rare.

Do you need to bring a trailer, if you buy a trailer???

No one here wants this, or needs this . . . but just check out some of the interior pictures! And at the price it might go for, who would want to tow it down the highway!

Reminds me of Desi and Lucy's "The Long Long Trailer"

I showed this to my wife, who has a soft spot for Airstreams, last week and she fell in love with it. Not that we have any real ability to buy it, but it was the longest she's spent on BAT for any vehicle offering she has seen.

It's incredible. I wish the photos were higher resolution...

Same I spent a very long time on the photos. Wow. Where could you ever take this. No where near dirt or gravel ever.
