@@ThrottleHouse Dear Thomas, have you ever driven an E28? That car would suit you so well. A BMW built in the 80's, that still has 60's styling cues shining through, and handles and drives like a 70's Gran Turismo, with a plush and comfortable ride. A timeless, understated classic, yet highly addictive once you're behind the wheel.

[@CPAJayhawk]

[@alf279]

Dude, you would think that Thomas says all that crap about the BMW just for the comedy, but nope. I don't own an E46, but I own an E36 convertible. Not even an M3, just a 28i with some mods, and... well, what Thomas says is just about right. Always something wrong, always something to do. The ND is a new Miata, but even NA Miatas are way less problematic even though they're also old. Just the rust. The damn rust. But in the end of the day, a BMW N/A inline 6 from the 90s and early 2000s will make you smile every day. I love my car, but it's not meant for daily usage at this age (even though I do use it almost every day when the weather is nice). I did drive Miatas, not the ND, but NA, NB, NC, with different engines, even drove an NB with a turbo and around 200hp. Of course, much fun, but a 4pot will never match the straight 6, and in a convertible, the sound of the engine is a huge factor of having fun. I drove many E36 and E46 convertibles (me and a friend of mine made a club in our country where we do car meets with only E36 and E46 convertibles), even a 320i with the 2.0 litre, not-so-strong 150hp, but still straight 6 engine makes you smile, even though it's actually quite slow. The character is all there, and for a spirited sunday drive, that's what you need the most. The V6-swapped Miata, Phil, from CarThrottle... now that's one I would try though, might fix the one problem I have with Miatas. The Miatas are also amazing to drive on twisty roads from the factory, they are light and the suspension is great. My Bimmer is not light. 1400+ kgs, with me in it, it's past 1500. But with a good suspension setup (which I have), it not only eats stock Miatas but GT86s as well. So yeah, there is potential and great fun to have in these old Bimmers, but be prepared for a shitload of problems. And they never really end. You can just have good times until the next issue.

[@alf279]

Yeah, a K-swapped MX-5 would definitely be a mean project. The E30 is a legend at this point, and costs insane amounts of money to buy for what you get, but I did try many of them, and the E36 is overall a more enjoyable platform. More rigid (even though the E36 isn't the most rigid car neither), feels much more stable when driving on the limit. If we lived nearby, I would offer you to take a trip in mine. Around 225-230hp (never measured on a dyno, just guessing from similar setups), rev limiter @ 7200, fully rebuilt engine, M50 intake and some other mods, custom ECU. 315mm EBC brakes in front, Powerdisc + ceramic on the back. M3 suspension setup with strongflex bushings and mostly eibach parts. Pilot Sport 4S tires. Some modifications to the chassis to make it slightly more rigid. As a result, it can actually compete with the likes of the Toyota GT86. Awesome experience. Of course it cost me a ton of money to get it to this level, and also a lot of time (we made almost everything by ourselves with some friends, except for the ECU and the chassis stuff). Perfectly usable - although quite stiff, of course - on the daily, excellent fun on the twisties, and we've been on some track days, too, it coped with that as well. E46 is an even better platform if you just wanna go fast, of course - much more rigid -, but it's too modern for me. The E36 has that analogue, OG feel to it, I love the feeling it has even in stock form (although it has to be good to provide what you want from it, most of them are too run down). I also like the design, I know many people still hate on the E36 but for me it's 2nd best to the E31 when it comes to "modern" BMW (overall it's the 507, of course). I can't afford to have two convertibles, I already have this and another hobby car, but if I could, I'd definitely build a Miata with some kind of engine swapped in. The K is a great idea, I really like Alex's Phil from Carthrottle as well. The only problem with that for me is you can't get papers for any kind of engine swap where I live, absolutely impossible to drive a car like that on the streets, even my E36 with the mods I mentioned takes some "persuasion" to get through our kind of MOT, even though it looks bone stock if you don't look at the wheels and big brakes. And if I wanted a track-only car, I would choose a base with a solid roof.

The key differences are: 1. it was close considering you have double the power and second james is gonna go home in miata while with that bimmer it’s always 50/50 possibility of going home on a tow truck

20 yo convertible faster than the new, that speaks volumes.

20 yo Modified convertible faster than the new one

[@jlthiess]

What volumes exactly does it speak? That a car with more than twice the power has more power than the car with less power?

[@dan5087]

Hell yeah, you guys deserve it!! Such a great channel. Cheers 🍻 here's to another million

I hate bmw and mercedes. I would take an engine swapped, tuned, turbo Miata over those any day.

Well deserved feat! I've been waiting for this moment for a while and I'm glad you guys hit 1 mil sooner
