KEY2 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2009 Schnitzer M3 Thinking of this car as a daily driver then converting to open series race car. Can anyone share any info on these cars. Not sure if this is a full spec Schnitzer. It was imported from Japan and bought by this guy in 2001 from Jerry Clayton BMW. Claytons have done all the servicing. Are the Schnitzer mods any good especially relative to going racing and track days? Any comments appreciated including those on price.

E30 325i Rag-Top 2956 Report post Posted December 11, 2009 In terms of bang for buck I feel the E36 M3 is the way to go for an Open Class car, with prices coming down all the time and lots of tuning goodies available for what is an already pretty capable base package.

Thanks for the link Dave. Apparently he has recently sold an M Roadster to a guy in Christchurch. For someone who is into Motorsport BMWs he doesn't seem to know much.

LOL bad taste IMHO+1 They certainly make me cringe lolThere are a lot of these advertised in the UK BMW magazines... heck, the E46 M3 only has them because one side needs the cooling for the ECU...
