I much prefer the M635 to the E28 M5; I never got the E30 M3 'addiction' for despite the racing pedigree as a road car it was too slow so that leaves the Z8 - and as beautiful as it is, there are better two seater roadsters out there.

We had a TVR Griffith 500 which (IMHO) equals the looks of the Z8, surpasses it in performance, and definitely drowns it in noise and sheer theatre.

I hate to admit this but I agree with you on the e30m3. I'm old enough to have actually owned BMWs (an e21 and a 2002) back during that era, and I test drove one and...well it was certainly okay, but I preferred my tii. The opinion was sealed in the service waiting area of the local dealership where I bought parts, and I saw more than one guy get the bad news about a warped head. We are talking actual tears, here, $7-10k USD in 1991 or so money. Adjusted for inflation, that sum would buy a decent driver e39m5 over here now.

That rebuild cost more than both my cars were worth together, and I remember thinking, "no thanks". Of course now that may be why the good ones are worth so much, but that engine and the s38 were two variants I was leery of even back in the day. :mrgreen:
