so I've been lurking on the board for a bit and honestly have been in serious debate the last year or so over buying a BMW due to fear of the high maintenance costs and repair bills i've shyed away.... but I'm deciding to take a chance because the itch just wont leave! At the end of this month I will look to go out and purchase my first BMW (e36) :-) I'll post pictures as soon as i pick it up (looking at a 97 alpine white keeping my fingers crossed

)
I'd like to say thank you to all on this board who have helped to influence me in making this decision and I look forward to many endless hours of reading and educating myself on E36's and becoming BMW savey!
