Not usable, I guess I'll give my M3 to the scrappers now.

I'm so glad post like this exists to help navigate the enthusiast away from unusable cars.
You know that I was referring to the technology. E generation 3 series and F generation 6 series are quite different from a tech standpoint. Many E Generation cars had no back up cameras, no parking sensors, no blind spot monitoring, no lane departure, navigation was not existent or dated, etc. To me, that makes the car unusable as these are either essential safety items or essential technology now.

Next you'll say that you can retrofit it and sure, spend thousands and thousands retrofitting. But you could spend thousands and thousands making a 650, and definitely an M6, run circles around a lowly e90/e92, in every aspect. But you probably won't even need to spend any extra money to do that.
