The standard car with the power and exhaust upgrade would do for me. I prefer the standard orange as well.

Everyone sees cars in a different way...We have had 11 BMW's over the years and all them great driving machines and none of them were without soul....The one German make that bucks the trend for me...............We had a Merc and that was terrible...boring and did not excite...OK, different levels of soul and my M3 CSL had as much 'soul' as my 3200 and sounded just as good if not better................I suppose what is soul...what does it mean...?........Something different to each person I would imagine.....In fact it is a pretty silly word to use I suppose......Is it not more about how the car makes you feel............So if you get out with a big smile and can not wait to get back in for another drive then surely thats what we are talking about....?.......There are not many cars I've owned that has not made me feel like that...German, Italian and British cars......

I like M Power and have had a couple over the years my favorite was the Z3 M Roadster in Estoril blue. But for cheap bucks my E36 3.0 is cheap fun for smoking around town. Phil.
