I have an E30 M3 Cab that I took on a couple of track days at Oulton park and wow what a great track car even the convertible. Obviously not as fast ads my T350 but much more fun the handling is sublime.

So I have just gotten another for track use only, I am off to Nurburg next Thurs till Monday. I have has several E36 M3's but they are nowhere near as much fun as the E30's! Oh and the Black cab in the picture is for sale here on Pistonheads (plug over).

Think you'll find that'll be too hard for the 'Ring, you'll be skipping all over the track.
