I would get the 95 M3 and for a 1000 or so approach 300hp (Euro HFM conversion, intake, exhaust, Cams and Jim Conforti chip). Why?.. well it's simple... I rather produce 300 hp on a NORMALLY aspirated car than a turbo charged <===> engine wear and abuse... :). That's what I did with my deceased cabrio.

Cheers.


I'm trying to decide if I should pick up a nice relatively low mile 95 M3, or go with a 325i and use the extra money to slap on an AA turbo and have about 300hp? Now I assume most of you guys are probably biased being as how this is the M3 forum, but has anyone else considered this at some point? I mean a nice 325i is not a bad car right? ... and with 300hp it would be a blast.
