Sell everything for this legendary BMW E36 M3.
, and you've got seven days left to mortgage the house, sell off your gallbladder, and scrape together the scratch. At the time of writing, bidding stretches to more than $200,000. Maybe give those couch cushions an extra shake.
Perhaps what makes this car so special, and so nostalgic for many, is that this era of BMW and of production-based racing didn't last. PTG closed its doors about a decade ago and BMW has partnered with other race shops for its efforts in America. In a broader sense, the silhouettes of sports cars homogenized in the years following this BMW's win at Daytona.
; this PTG E36 comes from that last era when the car in your driveway looked exactly like that race winner from TV if only you'd just squint a tiny bit.To that end, so much about this car stokes my own nostalgia. I was just a child when this M3 was raced, but later on, I owned several E36s, including a white M3 coupe and a red 328is from my teens through my mid-twenties. If you owned an M3 of the era, even the advertising on this PTG example resonates on some deep level.
Then there are the names who raced PTG E36s: Boris Said, Peter Cunningham, Bill Auberlen, Justin Bell, and more. These were and are real legends of the era. I could go on, but at any rate, this ad is worth a look.. Of course, you may recognize the Prototype Technology Group for another one of their contributions to U.S.-market BMWs of the mid-Nineties; PTG prepped the extremely limited and extremely cool E36 LTWs which made it to these shores.
