Last week at a fuel station a man of 65-ish came to me saying that he still had owned the first generation M3 when it was released back in the day. Fond memories, he said with twinkling eyes. The 1M was the first M car he liked again.

Very nice. I am restoring a Henna Red M3 as well.

thanks for all of the compliments, for those who dont know, Henna red was a 1st year only color on the 1988 m3, and half way thru the model year, BMW changed the color to a darker red. The orange/red did not go over too well in the us market, thus only like 200 or so were built Henna Red. BTW, the wheels on the e30 m3 are e39 5 series 16 inch sport wheels, i thought they beefed up the m3 stance from the stock 15 inch wheels.

UNO///M · 07-03-2012, 04:50 PM

Great pics, both cars are gorgeous.

sergeremi · 07-03-2012, 06:57 PM

Might need a little blue in there

///M-Rat · 07-03-2012, 07:21 PM

Very very nice

ozinaldo · 07-03-2012, 09:01 PM

And your two other cars are a Z3 M Coupe and a 2002tii? Man, your garage is like a dream to me. You sure know what to buy and what to keep.

1'M Blue · 07-03-2012, 10:44 PM

There's something wrong with the wheels on the M3 .. seems its too big or there's too much space on the rear especially ?

nice cars never the less .

///M1 · 07-03-2012, 10:45 PM

Great shots and perfect stablemate classics (well, one of them a future classic

)

yes, i need a spacer on the rear because the offset is for a e39 5 series

Hogiebear · 07-04-2012, 11:56 AM

Awesome! You can see the heritage

nachob · 07-04-2012, 02:02 PM

LOL

Oh man.....so I'm sure you forgot to put pictures of your gorgeous wife, perfect kids, awesome palace and Swiss winter cottages in Austria and Switzerland too.

Yes, I'm jealous! So happy to have a 1M but to have both 1M and E30 M3, that is soooooooo cooooool.

Congrats!

djafactor · 07-04-2012, 05:30 PM

Nice, fellow e30 M3 owner here too!

Here are my cousin brothers:

StealYourFace · 07-05-2012, 03:38 PM

Wow, awesome. A shame the 1M wasn't built in the same color. I really wish that in addition to building more, they would have had a couple more traditional M colors, Esotil, Imola, IB, ect.
