My thought exactly.

I have considered an older M3 as a dedicated track car too. I would take an E36 or an E46, but I would buy one that is already sorted for track use.

i.e. already has a roll bar/cage, suspension, bracing, and rear subframe retrofit etc. I do like that the E46 is more modern, but the E36 is light and is easier to work on. Not to mention less expensive.

I vote for a sorted E36.
