It is sad to seem them go after that amount of time, but take some solace in the fact that you can get into your M3 any time you like.
Probably a good call on switching out the 318i in your particular situation.

You are right, it was sad to see it go. It was a good car. I beat on it daily and it only failed me about 5 times in 9 years. My wife and I had driven it from Key West to Niagra Falls and every where in between on the east coast. The kid who bought it from me actually sent me a note telling me how excited he was and thanked me for it. My wife looked at me and said "he does know his parents paid us for it, right?" It's nice to know someone else will appreciate it.

You are also right about the M3. I hope I own that car for as long as I owned the e36.
