Have you ever wished you could buy that high-performance German sports car of your dreams for pennies on the dollar? Ever thought that the same $20,000 that will buy you a new Kia would also get you a real European performance car? This isn’t some Internet scam or late-night infomercial; GRM will s…
As the owner of the above Boxster then and now thought I should confirm that it really was the tires as Per said in the article. On Yok Neova's this car won the S03 class ( showroom stock '97 to '04 986 Boxsters) on the Lowe's MS infield course at the 2008 PCA Parade autocross by a good margin. I am thinking of selling it. Let me know if interested.

If the stock tire was a 225/45/17, and the newbies are 245/45/17, why the need to change the speedo? The diamters are identical, which is great because it retains a lot of the OEM geometry and avoids hassles.
With these cars all being old enough to drink, what do we think of them now?
Thoughts?
I will always stand by the E36 M3 (I've owned 2, for better or worse). I found that mine taught me a lot about being both a driver and a mechanic, though not always in that order :)
BMW made a lot of 'em, parts are common, and they're really rewarding to drive. So yeah, they're the E36 M3
Hope Per is well. I used to enjoy reading his articles and interacting with him here.
What do i think? The much-maligned 986/996 interior is aging the best. 
Mercedes C36/C43 offer a crap ton more value than E36 M3
E36 is still a high point of bmw design, to me, and absolutely fanTASTIC in estate trim.
