I've loved cars ever since I was old enough to hold a Matchbox car in my hand. I first noticed BMW's in the late '80's as a kid when I heard the exhaust note of an E24 6 series drive by. It just sounded so different from everything else on the road. I then discovered the E30 M3 and decided that at some point I would have to own an M3.

I almost bought a '96 M3 with 36,000 miles in 2003, but couldn't justify the price compared to a new WRX. When prices on E46 M3's started coming down I began my search for one, but then I learned the 135i was coming to the US and the rest is history.
