wow ^^^

Id like to be able to afford something like that sometime in my life, guess I better start selling off organs. The owner must be pretty serious about taking it to track days to drill holes/weld things to a new M3

John, your ability to capture pictures and drive is quite astounding.  They're usually pretty clear with the whole car in them!

Thanks, Hallway Pat! It's all luck and breaking the traffic laws here and there.

Correct.  It was a thing.  M52B25.  I think they were about 20hp shy of the M52b28 and M50b25

Exactly, they didn't call it a 325 because it had less power than the m50b25, go figure...

Yea, they only made them from 96-99 in "is" form and up to 98 in sedan.  I'm not really sure why they felt they needed a model above a 318 but below the 328.  I wonder if they just had some bonus parts around and thought, "why the hell not"

The 323 and 328 replaced the 318 and 325 when the obd2 switch happened.  E46s also were 323 and 328 until the m54 engine switch in '01.  Then they were 325/330

[Earl]

But there there are 96-99 318's still....

[wasnt m3]

There are also e46 318s, 320s, etc. Just like e36s.
