The Ultimate Mid-’90s Dream Drive.
Boot up your memories. This isn’t a throwback… it’s a time warp. This year’s Classic Raffle grand prize is pure analog magic: a refreshed 1998 BMW E36 M3 Sedan, Alpine White over Dove Gray, 5-speed manual, rear-wheel drive with no touchscreen in sight.
Remember when Gran Turismo 2 and Need for Speed II ruled your nights? When every sports magazine had Michael Jordan on the cover, the Yankees were just starting their dynasty, and the Cowboys still called themselves America’s Team? This is that era on four wheels.
M3 Perfection. 4 Doors. 1 Winner.
For a lot of our members, this is a sweet spot in the M3 lineage. Balanced. Responsive. Mechanical. The kind of car you feel before you even fire it up. And buttons – by god are there actual, physical buttons you can press.
Whether you’re chasing apexes or chasing nostalgia, this refreshed E36 M3 delivers the kind of raw, rewarding drive that earned it a permanent spot in video games, tuner culture, and the hearts of BMW fans everywhere.
And now? It could be yours.
