Their criteria of sub $30k had the 318ti a runner-up (IIRC) to the Honda Prelude SH. The e36 M3 was tops in the price is no object category. A lot has changed since then, but one thing remains......the e36 M3 handles very well and can still out run many newer, more powerful and more expensive cars on a road course. :) I know I love mine.

It is the flat (non offset !) open-ended 17x19 mm made by Heyco to DIN 895 and with the BMW imprint forged into the center shaft . The working ends look as if they never met their nut .no scratches , no dings , but there is a funny looking little inclusion in the forging along the shaft . Anyone missing same from a concours toolbox ? This is THE wrench that your car's PO tried to use to loosen lugnuts or headbolts .then threw away in disgust Make me an offer Know any nutters who have Moto Guzzi M/cycles ?? I have a factory (part number 12-90-1000) 17x19 mm openended wrench for those too . Interestingly it is shorter, fatter and weighs MUCH more than the BMW one . Probably made from ground-up Vespa scooters and Carcano rifles (?) .. Rusty , chipped chrome everywhere (HEY !! It'sa Hitalian whadda you want ??) .Has 'Moto Guzzi ' forged into the shaft , along with use instructions when picking olives with it. Allow for boat-anchor shipping from zip 38478 No biggie if no-one needs them . I'll wrap them in blue altar cloths made from virgin dog-hair and dedicated to my favourite deities and drop in my toolbox for my kid to inherit ......if he's good to me and calls often ... Bill Proud , Tenn. PS I have 3 big virgin dogs with LOTS of hair ...Gt Pyrenees and Olde English sheepdogs ..wooof ! Know anyone who spins and weaves ?? ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 16 Aug 2007 18:38:00 -0400 From: Matt Murray <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Bill Proud <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Sixer Group <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Uucdigest <bmwuucdigest@uucdigest.com> Subject: Knitting with dog hair (absolutely no BMW content, but there is humor there), was: Wrenching decision Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.kateconnick.com/library/croliushair.html I have known Kendall and her family for a long time.
