I like it

[bss325i]

I'm not a fan of green cars but that is VERY nice!

I'd Keep the style 32's over the contours.

i agree barry

[Cook318IS]

I'm not a fan of e36's tourings, especially boston green ones. But im loving this alot! I'd be tempted to leave the current wheels on too.

[telski789]

ive had 2 of these...i'll tell you something you need to do pronto....take the black plastic lock surround off the boot and put some kind of sealent along the top edge as it is a mega water trap and rots out the two lights in there and everything,ive lost two boots to this! nice car!

Very nice.

As above, I'd be keeping the Style 32s - more of a sleeper. In addition I'd remove the front GT splitter.

[MurphyE30]

Nice

[stbaz]

cheers for the comments.... i think once the running gear is delt with the contours will do themselves justice

[dom-1984-320i]

I like that!

[fourmotion]

Very nice mate. Keep the 32's. That looks bang on the money

[bpowell555]

Touring ftw!

[Zaho49]

I like it as well

[Simon13]

has she got the 2.8 to go with the show? does it drive like a bus on 18's?

[Splondike]

That's a nice looking motor mate. I like Contours but those 32s look so 'right' I wouldn't change them

[Alpina99]

That is a very nice looking car, in that colour it looks stunning !!
(I agree about keeping the wheels too)

[harry_p]

I have to say, I think contours are massively underrated.

When I got my m3 I couldn't wait to take them off, bit after refurbing them and putting back on temporarily they really grew on me and I will probably keep them on for good now.

I don't think photos ever do them justice, they don't really show off the dish nor the complex curves of the face.

Ive seen a few m3'd touring on contours and they look superb. Saying that, he multispokes ou already have look great too.

[ultralinear]

Very nice. She wasn't even dry after her bath! I agree with everyone else about the wheels.

This is largely off-topic but I've always thought it and am hugely reminded here... The side skirts on e36s look odd. They don't look right to me at all. The lines don't make sense. An attempt at producing a slender 'hipped' area just leaves a line from the rear that goes nowhere. Am I alone in this thought?

To my eyes, every suage line and bodykit line makes sense on an e30.

Dunno - a set of Contours does look good on a slammed moredoor/touring.

The m3 salons had plain colour coded skirts, not the swoopy 'm3' style ones, I think tourings look better with the plain ones too, but everyone doing an m3 replica always bungs on coupe skirts.

Don't get me wrong, i think contours are cool, i just think the 32's look really good on this touring.

[tonybtonyb]

Not keen on green but love what you have done

[stbaz]

all ive done is the wheels and splitter and tint the inner lamps

the car is a factory m sport 323i 2.5 which comes from bmw with the full kit INC the "swoopy" m3 skirts. i havnt fitted them.

i think the contours as previously said are going to look spot on and as asked.."does it drive like a bus on those 32's" simple answer is no. the car drives spot on. i dare say if it was on cheap coilovers or something it would drive like a turd but its on eibach springs and the drive is superb.....

more to come soon

[shedrool83]

Looks spot on Baz .It will be an awesome motor with the m3 running gear.

[Dezzy]

I like that

[stbaz]

ive got e92 m3 wheels, genuine not reps... 8.5 and 9.5 x 18

what do you think yey or ney ??













baz

[telski789]

very nice!

[oldroydsr4]

They will look awesome. Looks like the arches may need rolling though.

[stbaz]

i have the proper arch tool at work so thats not to much bother

[harry_p]

i didnt even realise you could get the new m3 on 18s. theyre a much nicer looking wheel than the 19s all the ones ive seen have been on.

i like them a lot, will be very interesting to see them fitter properly

looks like i might not be doing this now. wheels and car likely forsale....
going to see a moredoor m3 on saturday

[bss325i]

I don't really like those wheels on and E9x M3 but the look like they will really suit the E36!

[Blitz]

I think I'd rather have the E9X on 18's.

[bss325i]

These are the best E92 M3 wheels imo.

[Blitz]

Forgot about those.
