As crazy as it may sound, to meet with a kid you "know" off a forum, I would very much like to meet you and your cars in person.
Truly inspiring and awesome collection though man, I wish to have such a collection in the future....

But yeah, my offer is on the table. I would very much like to see you in Istanbul if we can arrange something or in Ankara should you decide to drive down here

Either way, great cars and story, I wish you the best

You sir, are a true enthusiast. Your story and photos kick so much ass!

No words.... One of these cars would be a blessing to have.... You got 3 !

Enjoy and thanks for sharing

[CLUBBER]

Thanks a lot everyone. Your kind words and wishes made me realize how fortunate and blessed I am to own these wonderful machinery.

Her opinion is that we are always looking for the "next car", and are never satisfied with what we have. There's some truth to that, but I have to say that I love my E92 M3 ZCP and will be hard pressed to ever sell it. This is why I can identify with your story, as I seldom look at the newer BMW's anymore. I admire the older cars, especially the M's. While they don't have the power of today's M's they are "The Ultimate Driving Machines". It's not all about power, it's about drivability, and the pure aesthetic of the cars in your collection is undeniable. The E30 M3, over 25 years old, still turns heads, and if I were able to swing it, would be my "next" car. Thank you again for sharing!

I drive them continuously and not just on easy cruises, I push them hard as that's what they know best and believe it or not, they perform better under stress. Every time I decide to take them on a relaxed drive, things go wrong
I keep my eye on the new machinery too of course as I am a die hard BMW fan but tbh NA cars are always have that special bond with me. I drove all new turbo M cars both on track and on the road and I still prefer the instant drama of an NA engine and I am not that crazy on torque. I don't mind revving the hell out of these cars to hear those glorious airboxes

Can, ayrıca Türkçe olarak başarılarını tebrik ediyorum, küçümsenecek bir şey degil. Özellikle Türkiye'de böyle koleksiyonlar bulmak ve yapmak çok zor. Adam akıllı bir restorasyondan anlayan adam bulamazsın zaten Bende de 2006 Z4 2.5 vardı imzadaki araçlardan önce ve çok mutluydum, efsane araba. Sonra M3/4 Rüyam tekrar ağır basmaya başladı değiştirdim Garajı'na her baktığında bu aletleri görünce insan mutlu oluyor. Başarılarının Devamını dilerim.

Çok teşekkür ederim. ///M'in her türlüsü güzel. Kazasız, belasız...

That's because it was a after hours project by M engineers not designers to add the much needed stiffness to the chassis. Engineers didn't bother with traditional design elements I guess

Thank you so much. Its certainly been a hard work but well worth it in the end.

This is a living love affair with three incredible machines.

The red E30 M3 is the coolest car I have seen in this forum - it looks the part, it is mechanically the part, and it lives the part. This E30 is a dream come true.

I have not read from any member so far such a clear story. And especially of cars that get driven so much. A collection typically would imply a garage queen kind of living. But going to the track in Germany with that E30 is just the most awesome aspect of this true enthusiast's experience with this E30.

OP, congratulations!!! You are inspirational to the rest of us.

Thank you for all your kind words my friend and you are spot on, it is a love affair. One that's been going on since my childhood days. My first trip to the 'ring with the E30 was surreal. Will never forget that sense of accomplishment.

Enjoy while you can and never worry about resale, mileage, touch ups etc. These cars are meant to be driven. Used and even abused !

It's a car that certainly grows on you. It is so absurd and irrational and wild in design and specs that it is impossible dislike it.

Great cars, great enthusiasm and most of all humble. My hat is off to you.

[T_F30]

That collection is really something! How cool ! I want one of each too!

[SuckaGDog]

The photography is just brilliant, great work! My favorite one is the bird's eye view of the E46 M3 and the beach.

I could spot that being the Cote d'Azur. I go there every summer for vacation it is by far my favorite area in Europe.

Wish you many more years of happy motoring.

Oh my goodness, this is just beautiful. Thank you for keeping the cars in good condition, driving them and sharing your cars and passion with us! The photos are definitely poster-worthy.

I'm really envy because I'll very likely never get to drive these amazing M's.

Maybe someone has already asked, but what do you daily drive and what cars are in your opinion worth adding to you collection?

Thanks again and happy motoring!

[Jay-K]

lucky guy,,
that csl tho...

[RedGT3RS]

Great collection!! But I guess I'm in the minority here, but I don't like the e30 m3's. I respect it though. Does it look good? Absolutely! Does it drive well? Definitely, I have driven a few but my fav is still the e36's and e46's especially the CSL one you have, something we can't get in the states. Makes me wish I have never sold my 06 silver competition M3 and 12 e92 M. All I got now is a 997 GT3😂😔

Thanks. That shot was taken in Ezé, Cote d'Azur. It is a truly beautiful place, almost surreal.

Thanks. You never know which cars you may end up having one day. 8 years ago all these cars seemed like a dream to me too.
I daily drive a '06 E86 Z4 Coupé 3.0si and Mrs. drives a '14 F25 X3 LCI. Here's a shot of the Z4,

Thanks. CSL is really incredible. How can changing so few parts can create such a different machine than the E46 M3 is truly magical.

I can understand that. It may seem too old for some and I agree that E36 and E46 maybe more up to date. Especially the E36 M3 GT which is still on my bucket list. Although you have one hell of a ride to forget the old ones I love the GT3's. All of them. 996 RS is my favorite !

It's people like you who are true m3 fans that make me come back to this forum since 2007. If I get to pick, my favorite would be ?30. Thank you for pictures.

[Chihuahua]
