BMW E36 Blog

I’ve found these photos which were taken from the BMW Museum, Germany. I have to admit, they’re very cool, so I wanted  to share them with you guys. So, what do you think? you like them? Oh… I almost forgot, go and check here for more photos of other BMW cars. I only brought the E36 photos, but you may like to check the other photos as well.

I’ve started a poll couple months ago with a question which goes like this "Would you like to participate in BMW E36 Blog by posting your own articles?". The result of the poll was 68% with a Yes answer. Making many users participate in writing on this blog will be a very healthy thing (well I think). It can provide the blog with fresh voices who will add variety and enhance the user experience on this blog. So, I’ve decided to give this a try and see if it’s going to work or not.

Starting from today, if you have any article that you’d like to post to this blog you can do it. You will have to register on this blog (right sidebar). After you register, you can login to your account and write a new post. These posts will need to be reviewed by me to make sure they will have the necessary formatting and other stuff. For those of you who are already registered, I think you may need to contact me in order to modify your user role to become a contributor on this blog. So, please feel free to contact me or submit a comment below.

Please keep in mind that this is just a trial and it should not affect this blog quality or post frequency in anyway. If it worked well and found it helping the blog readers to get more useful information about their BMW E36 cars, I will keep it.

Of course, if you have any opinion about this new idea or you simply hate it. Please post your opinion. You all know that this blog is for you guys which means that if you don’t approve something, I’m not going to do it PERIOD.

I’ve found this video for a BMW E36 328i showing some muscles. I have to admit that this is making me feel a little bit jealous for having a 318is. The car power is really impressive and makes you think about the BMW M3’s and how powerful and joyful they are. Please pay attention to the beginning of the video in which it says "The following video is 100% fictional and was rendered by a super-computer. Do not attempt any of this!" LOOOL! sweet. So are you ready? take a look and please let me know what you think of it.

Check it out!

I hope you liked the video . . . if not, come on let’s see your videos 😉

I’m sure you’re a little confused about the title of this post, and you maybe hit it just to know what is that never ending story. It all begins with a thread on bimmerforums, in which, Quart3r asks the readers of that thread to help him create a story about BMW E36. The trick is that every reader should participate in writing the story with a line of text (no more) that will build on the previous post.

I liked the idea and found it very cute and funny. The story goes like this:

QUART3R: While driving in my 325i…
IM OVER IT: While driving in my 325i…I decided to trade it on a 318is
DOWNEASTER1: I decided to trade it on a 318is…and then sadly disappointed, I traded it back
ASC OFF: But it wasn’t the same
JAKEDANIEL: I felt I needed something more, something to fill the empty space in my heart and my driveway.
ROARF: …and then I saw the puddle under the car
BESKHU3EPNM: The puddle was dark brown, and it was found to be a mixture of power steering fluid, engine oil, and antifreeze.
DOWNEASTER1: so I called for my trusty Bentley manual
ASC OFF: To find it could not be repaired
BESKHU3EPNM: So I went on b.fc to research a S50/S52 swap [LOOOOL]!
ROARF: but I was drunk at the time and decided to swap in a VTEC instead
PAUL NJ: so I went to eBay and looking around I found some nice Mods
BESKHU3EPNM: Including this thread So I made another pointless thread on bf.c to ask everyone about it.
ROARF: then I found this thread and realized this was the answer to ALL of my problems
ASC OFF: When it arrived I started the install
RANDAN: This mod with a couple of stickers, easily gave me 50+ hp.
DOWNEASTER1: just then, a few of the local ricers showed up
BESKHU3EPNM: But I couldn’t drive anywhere as my plastic fan blade had shattered, taking out my rad, hoses, etc
ASC OFF: So the repairs began again
MMMCOOKIES…: so I hopped a ride in with one of the ricers and headed down to our local pepboys
PAUL NJ: and there we find some fine tuning, with the outstanding customer service
MMMCOOKIES…: until the drugs wore off and we realized we were in pepboys…
ROARF: I couldn’t help but notice the Dunkin Donuts next door. [LOOOOL]!
MMMCOOKIES…: so we flew over there but it was too late… the cops had baracaded the doors…. [A twist…]

If you liked the story like me, I think you’ll need to read the rest of the thread here.

I’ve found this BMW E36 and I like it because it’s not messed up. I like making changes to BMW cars, but I like to keep the changes minimum not to ruin them like some people usually do. Starting by some modifications then ending with a Hyundai or Maybe a Honda :D. Anyway, consider this as an untouched vehicle and you want to make it look better, you can change 3 things at max. What these things would be? For me, I would change its Rims (Number 1). I would get leather seats (Number 2) and then I would Lower that car (Number 3). If I had a fourth thing that I can make, I would change the headlights too. But I will just keep it at three. Yeah, also, I know that some of you will be burning to mention the automatic change to manual as a choice. This has nothing to do with the car appearance remember?

Lets here it guys…
