    Au Revoir BRG M3

    The car was up for sale at one point but I realized that I loved the car too much to let it go. No one would be able to finish the car the way I saw it in my head and I just couldn't imagine seeing someone else driving my car on the street.

    Yesterday a distracted driver barreled down my neighborhood and slammed into my parked car, consequently totaling it. I am fortunate that I was not in the car and no one was injured but I won't lie to myself and say that I was not at loss for words. Goodbye to a project that I loved and enjoyed for the last four years...



    I'll be updating more on the debacle and future endeavors on my blog:

    Au Revoir,

    Paul

    Surely one of the finest examples of a clean e36.

    Good luck and thanks for always sharing it with us.

    DAMN, no way.

    I'm honestly at a loss for words, when I saw your car was for sale a few months back I almost bought it. I can't believe it.

    Sorry and RIP, but I can't help but ask.. what's next?

    that sucks so bad, was it the factory paint color? I haven't seen many in BRG

    this is why I'm happy I live in a residential neighborhood and have a nice long driveway to park in

    Damn, also one of my favorite E36's. Are you going to part the rest, or keep stuff for a future E36?

    This was the car that inspired me to get an e36. Im so sorry man. A car like that almost becomes like a child of yours. I can only imagine how much sweat and hard work went in to that car. RIP BRG

    I remember loving the heck out of your car when I joined the Forums; sad to see this.
