M3 Stablemates: What else do you have in the garage?

[LSB4Me]

Coming home sometime this week!

Ooooooh nice! We are very nearly twins. Yellow belts for the win.

Enjoy in good health (and at or near redline).

2016 GT4 - My canyon / weekend toy. Truth be told, the e46 is quite jealous as I barely drive it these days. Thinking about converting the 46 back to daily duties so I can enjoy it more

Funny. I've been considering reverting my E46 back to street-driven only as well (track it mostly). Mainly to preserve it and enjoy it for spirited drives and car trips. Have been eyeing GT4s as a potential next acquisition. Do you track your GT4 at all?

I will own a 997.1 GT3 one day. Absolutely gorgeous man!

Coming home sometime this week!

This design has aged so well. Great interior too.

Yup. Old, but great.

Absolutely timeless design by Klaus Kapitza. What a car!

They are definitely a dog but to me, that's part of the charm. It's not the vehicle I choose if I'm in a hurry. It's perfect for a scenic drive or running errands around town.


Like most enthusiast vehicles, pricing has come down the past 6 months. Good time to buy! What's your end goal with usage?

Pretty much exactly your use case, my around the town cruiser/classic that I can throw our Husky in the back of. In a similar vein I'd love a Range Rover Classic LWB, or even an XJ Cheerokee (my family had a bright red XJ Sport about 20 years ago that saved us in an accident and was totaled out). Something about these old boxy SUV's that weren't gargantuan makes me really nostalgic

The prices on these parts are nuts. Have been casually looking for 997 folding buckets, but the cheapest I've seen is ~$14k.

Congrats on the car man!

Thanks! I saw a set on eBay for $16k, but they were beat up. I'd be cool with giving you a discount, but I don't think I could price them in the teens---if interested, just shoot me a text and we'll figure it out. There's a guy on RL who lives in Europe and sells GT3 seats all the time, and I could send you his information as well.

Corbeau is making new replicas. Apparently you can contact them directly for custom work.

Thanks. I've briefly looked at them before, but they seem like low quality reps. I think I'd rather have the genuine Recaros.

Of all the forums I frequent, this one has the nicest cars.

I might be open to it if you have $25k and can help me source 996 alien buckets in Perlon lol.
