...thanks Joe for providing the history on the E30 M3! Been busy today working in the yard. Damn hot outside.
The "mon" part came to me while I was at a friend's house in USVI - we were (over)enjoying some cold ones at a bar in St John called "The Quiet Mon" and since a forum I had been creating an account for had an ID called "e30m3man", I decided to take the name of the bar as the ID's surname. Goofy, yes, but hey I did say we were (over)enjoying many cold ones, so it worked
Pics of the M3s at home, per Joe's notes ...
