Due to curcumstances beyond my control (Maryland State Income Taxes),

I had to sell my baby. (2000 jet black/caramel).
I have owned an E36 M3 (99 cosmos black/black) that sat parked for the 14 months I enjoyed the M5.
Comparatively, the M3 is a bucket of bolts.
Trying to make lemonade out of lemons....I rationalized that the car...with 58,700 miles...needed a warranty extension for 1 more year at a cost of about $2K, may have proven to be costly to keep.
I hereby make a solemn oath that I will be back...with a later model replacement...next Spring (06).
