I think the e36 M3 is the most under-appreciated and underrated BMW ///M car of all time.

I owned my e36 M3/4/5 and e46 M3 at the same time. So I actually got to drive them back to back, daily. You wouldn't believe just how capable the e36 M3 was. Around town, it actually felt snappier and faster than my e46 M3. Down low, the torque felt more immediate and ready to use, whereas I always had to wind-up the hell out of the e46 M3 to be "effective". Not to mention the e36 M3 felt like a go-cart. I always needed a few minutes to adjust because going from the 36 M to 46 M felt like I was driving a boat. Sure, the e46 M3 was much faster overall, but the e36 M3 was simply more fun in all aspects. With a dedicated set of snows, the e36 M felt incredibly balanced and controllable.

Having never driven an LTW, I can only imagine how snappy and balanced it must be.
