Obviously we all hate them.

Seriously though, they are great little cars, basic maintenance isn't too expensive, they can be made to handle very well. Stock M44 motor is down on power and don't expect big gains from bolt ons. They will accept an M3 motor swap very easily though. Cooling system is the biggest weak point, as it is on all E36s. I routinely get 33mpg out of mine.
