I would prefer an E46, but mines so much car for such little money i dont see the point. Plus i like the gearbox, i like the mods ive done and i genuinely love the car! See no need to change, just want it all tip top.

Nah, it will be fine. If something breaks just get a second hand replacement.

Do it Dakar Yellow. Would look awesome with the black roof, or even better with a black hardtop.

£5k?

Your forgetting that mines mechanically mint, drives like a new car and is far cheaper to run than an E46. I'd plough more money into a ropey E46.

Won't do Dakar as they are readily available and not rare.

You guys aware of google and Xvideos/Xhamster yeah?

I'd love to do it Fiji but I think the white will be a bit more classy and modern.

White will make it look like a fridge. Please refrain from doing this.

Re do in another dark colour if going for a change. I cant but help think a non E36 colour like Calypso red would look immense.

Fad The fridge mark made me laugh. It would look puuurty.

Calypso was available in the US, does look nice but its not for me.

No to LSB its too similar to Santorini.

Colours i would consider:

1. Alpine white
2. Fiji green
3. Chrome

Calypso red is a nice colour, theres a convertible goes around this way in that colour and its tidy looking. Doing it that colour would run the risk of making it look like a non-M3 though.

Are the other colours non-M3 colours??

Alpine is non M3, To my knowledge Fiji is exclusively an M3 colour. Claypso is nice, but i dont like burgundy
