    Wifey had us looking at convertibles for several months now. I decided early on, that I like the steering, handling, & torque of the e36 m3 over the newer m3 converts, and they are somewhat less expensive. We found this one over the weekend & pulled the trigger. It has the Dynan suspension & supacharger.
    We took it to Leavenworth, a little German village over the mountain range today. It is fun. The Dynan muffler may prove to be a bit too loud around town & may be replaced with something more m3 stock-ish. I also don't care for the stock brake dust on the fussy wheels.

    Very nice Martin. So let me get this straight... the MAF just "happened" to get its wires crossed, which just "happened" to make it temporarily out of commission, and it just "happened" that there was a nice little supercharged ///M3 available... Seattle sounds like a very lucky place...
