Re: The 32k Question S4, M3, ect?

haper- I know *exactly* what you mean with the Corrado/e46 M3 fun-to-drive comparison! I felt the same way when I had some mighty good cars that just didn't put the same smile on my face that some "lesser" cars did. There's more to enjoying a car than its ultimate capabilities, especially on the street.

Honest-to-god, I sometimes think the most fun I *ever* had with a car (on public streets ) was my '87 VW Quantum Synchro wagon with a tweaked supension, at least when the weather was bad. I used to leave the Porsches/etc. in the garage because I simply enjoyed the VW more.

Not always. At least up through '93, you could get a 325i with either the sport or inclement weather packages which got you a LSD.

IIRC, ASC (anti skid control) came on the BMW scene in '94. But I still think you could get a LSD with either of the two option packages above so long as you didn't specify the ASC option.

I believe once the 328i was introduced in '96, the LSDs were gone as options and ASC was standard.
