As someone that owns both sport and M3, what's your comparison of the two?

Hi the 325is was built in South Africa instead of the M3 as BMW never imported it so has all the same suspension as the M3 for group n racing but being a six cylinder feels that bit more lazy for having the same 210 hp. The 325is is right hand drive so that makes it a more relaxing long distance drive compared to the M3.

i'd be 99% it's the only one, thats the one WLN sold years ago in around late 2003/04. I couldn't get the insurance on it at the time as i was looking for a sport.

What a pair of chariots!
