I'll second that! My M3 saloon didn't have a rear spoiler and looked infinitely better for it!

Thirded from myself!

I wanted one without the spoiler ... looks much clearner without.

I haven't started driving it yet as the drivers seat is getting retrimmed due to worn leather.

Should be back with me tomorrow so I can start using it dailycool

Edited to make sense!

Sorry to go against the grain, but...

I think these cars look somewhat bare without without a spoiler if they have the rest of the 'M' body kit. That's not to say the OP's car isn't gorgeous... it is... merely that I would have to have a spoiler on any M-spec E36 coupe of mine because it simply doesn't look quite finished without one. Maybe it's just 'cause I'm so used to seeing mine that I feel this way. Of course, it has to be the 'full-fat' M3 type spoiler, not some of the rather weedy alternatives that were on offer.

You mean Avus blue? I thought the 328is was Montreal blue and the 3.0 M3 Avus blue... I'm confused now.

As far as I know mine is Avus - possibly a special order?
