The Best car ever MADE !!!! build it Again BMW !

[@nightreapers3425]

2nd gen 3 series (e36) best looking desighn. im lucky to own a boston green euro 325 limozeen (Sedan). euro m50 motor is quicker then the u.s m50 on any up hill

[@MADMAN1747]

I have a 1991 E36 325i Sedan and a 1993 325i coupe, both manual and both are my favourite cars out of the 9 different cars I have owned, nothing feels as good to drive as the E36. You feel everything, it's nice and mechanical and the throttle response is instant, new cars have been a letdown for me ever since :)

[@Eazye442]

I agree they should start to make new e36

[@Euphorica]

I like how this video is 3 minutes and 36 seconds

[@kurtrusellpatrickswayze]

+Euphorica Why?

[@hon3yweed]

+She Swallowed It because 3 series e36?

[@kurtrusellpatrickswayze]

Honey Weed Lol okay. I thought it was like 336i (which doesn't exist)

[@Euphorica]

+She Swallowed It 3 series e36

[@MrOhcock]

*mind blown* lol

[@Sammyzuko]

The most understated and overlooked M3. Nice to see it finally get some love, even if the vid is only 3 and a half minutes.

[@ToddHanson]

+Sammyzuko It gets plenty of love on the track every weekend ;)

[@KOVROL]

Sammy, my E36 M3 will be finalized in the next year, tons of new original parts bought into it(approx 40k euro), same like a 0km E36 and I will make a similar video from it to show that there are some E36 enthusiasts around the world and the E36 is still a very good looking (in my opinion its the best looking) car.

[@mario-yg8mx]

Back in 2000 I bought a 95', sure do miss my E36, Dakar Yellow, it did stand out. Absolutely best balanced and handling car I've ever owned. The brakes were amazing, and that straight six just loved to roar, the power band was endless. Now I have a newer 328i and it just doesn't feel the same. Ho Hum....

[@domtoretto3280]

love the e36 m3! properly sleek , clean, classy and powerful.

[@gary_beniford]

I wish car companies could do vintage reissues like guitar companies.

[@HenryPerez_royal_hp]

+jump oricakle oh dude that would be amazing!

[@dabemoji2839]

jump oricakle wtf I swear I've been saying the same thing. Like it would be cool if you could just special order one off bmw individual, so they wouldn't have to mass produce them.

[@TheHalo4News]

that would cost too much, not to mention this car wouldn't meet regulations for collisions it would take alot of money to re engineer it.

[@HenryPerez_royal_hp]

***** that is a strikingly good point Debbie Downer lol xD

[@gary_beniford]

***** I think there's some rule where if a car manufactured makes less than 500 cars per year then it doesn't have to meet regulations. maybe BMW could make a subsidiary to produce the reissues.

[@MRP78]

Timeless.

[@ChooseLanes]

I love the strong square styling of this generation M3,

[@lodrakk3114]

Best M3.

[@Ipaytaxes]

To Gerhard Richter a personal thank you for bringing such a wonderful car to the road..... my own e36 convertible is my pride and joy...... the engine just purrs and on the country lanes of Cornwall with the top down..... just magic.... I wish bmw would do a run of this model again but it would have to be a carbon copy with careful consideration to upgrades..... the e36 looks great sat among modern cars because it stands out.... interestingly though the modern mini is so big it makes our car feel small and more like a mini.... where as in 1999 when I first drove the car it felt big in relation to other cars..... yes I love the e36 and I love mine..... thank you BMW.

[@demoskunk]

Best handling car at that time.

[@IamMeHow]

Please do this series with the history of the M5, they too revolutionaised the super saloon industry and have a rich history

[@bmwe39m5]

Yup. M5 please ☺

[@CmdrStukov]

+Mehow DF agreed. To date; the e39 M5 is still arguably the pinnacle of the super saloon segment in terms of striking visual appeal/aesthetics, handling, power and build quality.

[@pjakk84]

+Mehow DF AGREED! its only 3 series bla bla :( want to see e28,e34,e39 and so on

[@iliovecaRS]

yaaz

[@MultiTerpen]

AGREE!! M5!

[@idonjohnson6999]

Always loved the E36 and I'm happy to own a piece of BMW Motorsport history.

[@idonjohnson6999]

ps. when they show the 3.0 specs in the beginning, what you see is the 3.2 engine.

[@MindofMatter]

I have been waiting for a e36 M3 history video like this. Well Done!

[@krutomjer]

I hope you make these videos longer, they are just awesome !

[@cappone76]

legendary car

[@WhiteWingSTI]

I didn't really cared much about BMW... that's until I bought a 98 E36 M3. Indeed a special car that connects to the driver like no other!

[@ABlongboarders]

Cant wait for the video on the e46 m3! i hope they do the entire m3 generations and also an M5 generation too after :) Thanks Bmw! love these types of videos

[@dinodidic288]

truly a engineering masterpiece... one of my favorites... 3201cm3, 321hp, 3.23 lsd, 350nm/torque, 6 speed/box.

[@GameeFaceeMuzik]

I had an E36 320i for my first car. I have a soft spot for E36s.... Love them to death.

[@CatGuy969]

I'm thinking of getting a 320i, can you tell me the biggest problems it had? :)

[@ronemcers8570]

@@CatGuy969 I bought 318i sedan for my first bmw car, gonna keep it and buy another with 6 cylinder :)

[@straightbusta2609]

The middle child in the M3 series. The most overlooked one. I hope I'll be able to buy one before everyone else realises it and the values shoot up

[@madsmaltesen4708]

I dont have words for how amazing this car is, i just love it ❤️

*Absolutely, My Number 1 Favourite BMW* 😍

[@simphiwem9674]

An former English teacher of mine had this exact one and it was the first time I'd seen a Dakar Yellow BMW. Needless to say I've been in love ever since

[@BMW]

Sure is a stunner 🥹💛

[@pixazpixac2475]

superb video... superb car!!!

[@mario-yg8mx]

I has a yellow one, 95. Bought in 2000. Best car I ever had, The bmw's today lost all the feel. The balance, the breaks, the rev of the engine went on forever. Man I miss that car.

[@user-ko2gb4kw8h]

That's a real design. Very nice and beautiful.

[@whiskeyactual.]

One day I'll have one of these in my collection!

[@Alekxs]

[@mario-yg8mx]

I had a 95 E36 m3, and now I have a newer F30, and the balance and feel, braking and performance, power band and smoothness of the older car, is much better than the new F30 in my opinion.

[@timoo6194]

I have a e36 325is with a s50 & lowering springs. I love it it's an awesome car.

[@damyonbeams420]

I love how all the e36 M325i m50's are shunted just like they don't mention the failure of there non iron blocks for there non North america cars. m5025b is a great engine, just put 93 with Lucas oil racing octane booster which has the elements stripped from NA gas along with more goodies, different air filter(seal the system as well), NGK iridium's, high flow fuel pump with 328 injectors, and a ecu tune for the set up, (eventually a look at the exhaust system and set it up even more for a torque, not HP supplemental system,ecu flash to follow) and like a REAL racing engine one must LEARN the engine and the car which is too tall a order for most pedal mashers, even stock, you control the throttle, not mash it all the time,get her up above 1850 at less than an inch of throttle(very easy for a well kept one, even in my 92 sedan 325i I did not need that much before light tinkering, after barely 2 thirds of an inch) then you can suddenly put the throttle down a third's worth and not only is it immediately responsive in any gear, lower speeds u will torque the rear and burn out and have to let off, at higher speeds the torque keeps u in control to say the least, it will still try to pull you too the seat, while the HP still allows a very nice top speed and the engine during which sounds like a true street blended racing machine, let off the throttle to cruise and keep the gear right for the speed and between 1600 to 1900 it makes the most attractive sound, hit the throttle and the tones pace and tone increases to become a hole different monster. not to mention in my honest opinion, the engine is hungry for air, super charging would fit, ether kind depending on preference, to "smooth' out the engine, but its a peaky twich engine, it wants to be driven, you just gotta learn, not force it to conform with a vanos the and things like the better pistons etc that the m50 non vanos SHOULD have had from factory. then hell you could look at more aggressive cames but you don't even need the astronomical revving, it allows you to be in the power and torque bands sweet spots for what ever curve you want if you CAN LEARN how to get and keep and remover her from there to the next needed move.. I swear... the vanos even killed the engine sounds for me. non vanos when given the mods listed, even with stock exhaust, sound fucking fantastic, in more than just 'REV STRAIGHT TO RED LINE AND LET OF ALL THE WAY" you can feel the moods of the car based on the control of the throttle, the vanos, it feels fundmentally different in that way, core feelings where altered and lost. its sad..really sad.

[@fitnesspoint2006]

Window switches and other bits from e36 m3 were used in McLaren F1, the engine was basically 2 m3 e36 engines put together for the F1 development.

[@victorq281]

That black M3 GT looks sexy AF. I think the E36 gets better with age, looks wise if kept stock and kept clean.

It's racing dark green. All GTs came in this colour.

Solid car, bulletproof engine.. 236k miles and still running strong! Too bad the USA-version is only a measly 240hp compared to their EU counterpart of 321hp . Damn those strict emissions regulations.

[@Arayig1982]

+fvhitman4hire Nothing to do with emissions more to do with cost. To keep the price way down compared to the standard one.

[@soundseeker63]

That harsh yellow colour aside, this e36 M3 was very subtle and restrained.....contrast that to the aggressive bulges, spoilers and scoops of the current M3/M4.... what a difference! :-o I think the E46 is the best M3, but the E36 is very underrated!

[@kairikkola]

For me E36 is ultimate BMW. I have i3 and modern 520d but garage pearls are E36 318is coupe and E36/7= Z3.

[@shikarbabulall3897]

Well to be fair the orignal E30 was a limited edition , this was a full on production car so then its obvious that you are going to sell more

[@m23m23]

mz first car was a e36 coupe :D

[@dbarlas]

At 0:39 the video shows the 3.2 motor but the tag describes the 3.0!!!!

[@1D0N]

+Dimitris Barlas Indeed. If you look more closely, the vid uses 2 yellow coupes. One is a 3.0 model, the other a 3.2. They mix them up the whole movie.

[@bmxismylife123]

The best looking 3-er in my opinion. Honestly I don't understand the hype over E30s, it looks too boxy and the interior, in my opinion, looks like an old Russian Lada.
