Welcome to the garage of Toms E30 M3

RIP E30 M3, I loved you so, and I will always hold a place in my heart for this fine auto.

The Ultimate Driving Machine

This is it the page you all gave been waiting for. A look into my adventures in driving and owning BMWs flagship racer.

Updates and what is happening here at the M3 Garage

So it's been a long, long time, and I fear it's only with sadness I return to this page- I forgot I even built it 5 years ago! The car was killed in a winter accident on 393 in Concord, NH a few years ago driving 45 around the first corner bridge (near gateway gardens for those in the area) and I was in the left lane realizing the road got much worse ahead I attempted to move to the right lane, upon driving over the bump of shit the piles up between the lanes my rear tires lifted, lost traction, and never regained, the car spun twice, once clipping a passing Jeep (no one hurt thankfully) and then spinning into the guardrail- honestly I though I was going over the edge and am glad all in the car ended up safe(girlfriend at the time, and our other friend in backseat) No one was even bruised, only my ego, and a piece of my heart that might never grow back. Thanks for the cruise invites over the years everyone, hope all your rides are fine, and the road free of pigs!

FYI I am just about to retire the M's replacement (1996 Jetta GLS, POS) after 75,000 miles of road trips, and fun for something newer and more reliable.

2/8/2001 HELLO CARDOMAIN.COM Today I set up my new web site here in hopes to attract a bigger crowd then at Geocities. My site will soon be more detailed assuming I don't get lazy.

Here are some pictures from this summer.
