Hey everyone,

I'm doing some research for my next car purchase. I've considered everything from a 06-07 WRX to a 350Z and am really leaning towards a ZHP and it's solid balance of performance, style and practicality I want in a DD.

I had an E36 M3 and loved everything about it (well, except for the fact that it left me stranded 3 times).

I spent close to $3k in maintenance and did the work myself with the help of friends and had a solid performing and maintained car that I could have driven for a long time very happily, had one of my rear tires not blown and made my car lose control and slide underneath a semi at 40mph

My question is has anyone here had an E36 M3 in the past? If so, how does it compare to the ZHP? My schedule is a bit hectic right now, otherwise I'd find one locally to test drive and gauge it or myself.
