Actually quite sad to see the E36 go as it was such a nice example.



The replacement:
Havent had time to clean the car as of yet but will upload better pictures once i have.








Mods are: BBS LM Reps, Blueflame Rear Box, Lowered 30mm, Black kidney grills.

Plans: Remove the DIY tinted rear lights and replace with some facelift LED's.
I'm also expecting the Reps to start flaking within a couple of months so will change them to something like CH's.

It sounds amazing as it is so i wont be changing the exhaust.

Comments etc welcome.

My only criticism is the rear lights but seeing as you plan to change them I'm a fan

And another E46 on this forum Getting a bit silly now

Is it a clubsport? Was very surprised on how much these have dropped in price, couple of years ago they were much more than the standard 330s. Very nice

Estoril blue and is found 99% of the time on the clubsports which is basically a sport but with extended front splitters, different wheels, spoiler. Not sure if the interiors or power is different as iv never really looked into them. Great cars in a great colour!

Clubsport was also slightly lighter than standard, with sound proofing material removed! Can't recall how many KG they removed but was a few! Silver, blue, black or red most are estoril!

Spoiler is a love / hate I personally live it and would stick it on an E46 M3 if couldnt get an original CSL boot.

Very nice car!

Thanks for the comments guys, i love it. Its perfect for what i want.

Clubsport differences over the 330ci are:
20kg lighter
Front splitters
Rear spoiler
Stiffer shocks and springs.

Estoril Blue is rarely found on any other e46 model as it is an Individual colour.

It was on ebay last week, it was on 20 mins down the road and had low miles so thought id snap it up
