Congrats! The 36M manual sedan is definitely a gentlemen's car. The sedan came in 2 different silvers in 1998, Artic Silver pre 02/28/98 and Titan Silver post. You can check how many sedans were manufactured in your color combination here.

What color interior? Factory spoiler, heated seats, and HK sound system?

If not already planned, make sure to change the expansion tank along with that thermostat. Don't get the aftermarket Behr tank, it's thin crap, go OE fropm the dealer. Ohh, and also replace those old Vanos seals. Really wakes up the bottom end of the rev range when the Vanos seals are new (gobs of torque).
