yeah scotty!
hey scotty i don’t know if you’re aware of this but when i try to register on your website, it does not work. i don’t get anything in my email to set up my password for an account so i can ask a question?
Hey Scotty, can I come buy the car for $1700 ?
Would be neat if it was a hard top.
Watched 10 min of that video to realise it has nothing to do with how the house looks. Lol
As a BMW fan, I totally agree with Scotty on this one. These old naturally aspirated straight-6 BMWs were far better in almost every sense than the vast majority of new ones, particularly in terms of reliability. And even when something breaks down, the cost of repair is still relatively cheap due to simpler engineering.
100% correct! 😉👍🏻
I have a diecast model of this exact car, I bought by accident. I'm keeping it now.
never thought i’d hear scotty saying something good about a BMW 😂
The Tennessee sun has got to him already! 😎🌞
Was about to type the same thing dude..😂😂
It's the altitude.
I mean, hes only giving credit when the credit is due. If a manufacturer makes a good car during a certain period of time, he says so. Take Nissan for example. Their older vehicles were awesome and id buy one in a heartbeat, but you couldnt give me a brand new one today.
@@kobrien4121 wait until allergy season, he will hate everything. 🤧
A manual on that thing would be lovely.
Every old e36 and e46 here is a manual
I haven't seen automatic one here xD ofc europe. And i do mean this particular model
It is ;)
@@severinkolakov4361 what? No it's not
A manual won't be 1000.
I've had a 1995 325i convertible. I regret selling it. Great car! Fun to drive.
Ive had 9 of these now, from a 318i, 323is, 325is, 328i, and a 95 dakar yellow m3 coupe which I daily drive right now and love. These inline 6's are BULLETPROOF, affordable, easy to maintain and modify, and parts can be found everywhere in junkyards and damn near everything is interchangeable. Transmissions are solid as hell too, everyone says the obd1 325 getrag transmissions suck but ive never had issues with any, and the 96+ZF transmissions are strong asf and in a bunch of other BMW's. Diff is bulletproof minus the front bolt that always breaks (once you start to really race and beat these cars) but honestly its the best bang for your buck fun all around platform. But prices are starting to go up because everyone is just realizing now how good they are lol.
E36 is the next E30
Dakar yellow ❤❤❤❤❤❤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
And what about the 318i? It is good too?
I’m an entry level purchaser. I have a budget of 10k. Which is the best year and series to buy?
Glad to see my 93 325is hard top coupe with 142500 miles getting some love from the Scotty (close enough) . Been a great car for me. Still drives like dream and you are right on about the drive train in these cars. Bullet proof (almost)
In the UK, I did 250,00 miles in my 1987 straight six 7 series, had it 7 years and sold it running really well. Zero problems apart from a new exhaust.
We all know you love beamers but can’t recommend em to ppl. Used to have that car, been waiting years for you to review the e36 chassis
Hey man. i wanted to buy an E39 mainly want a manual and preferably a 540i. What is your opinion?
@@zhila5958 if you get a e39 I would stay away from the 540i from what I hear they have the most issues but that's just what I hear I have no proof lol but all other e39's are def worth it
@@zhila5958 BMWs V8 engines have only one problem...engine temp...they originally run very hot and nawadays we are making them to run a little bit colder...this is the first tuning you should do to these engines...and you should change all rubber hoses and cables close to the engine because they are all fried from the high temp. over the years...and u must check if its not overheaten so much because its expensive if it is...other than that its a freakin graet engine...all of'em...BMW V8s are mainly used for drift cars in my country and they run on high revvs for years no problem...just make it run colder and its all good
@@calirider9168 i’m focusing on getting an older model without the vanos but maybe i should stay away from V8s in general i guess. appreciate the answer
@@martinrezzy yeah i was wondering the same cuz there has been drift events which had E36 cars with M62B44 swap and i heard good things about it. maybe i just shouldn’t be a careless person since older BMW cars are known to be amazing when it comes to reliability. appreciate the answer
E36 one of the best looking cars ever made
yessir
Nah e30 way better
@@jacksonramsay1572 I prefer e36 look but got plenty a few friends with e30s their cool but they put e36 engines em them ;) haha
No, it is not.
E46 M3 for me
This ones an oddity. I had a 94 in 2000/2001. They were known rust buckets here in the UK. The only good thing I could say about it, when it stalled out at traffics lights, which it did regularly, I could put my feet through the holes in the rusted away floor and push it along like Fred Flintstone without getting out.
Well in the UK rains a lot.
You can still see e36s driving around to this day in the UK mate. Yeah they suffer from rust but everything else is built really well.
Gareth, do you every have a dry day their in the Kingdom....If I lived there believe my skin would become a prune!!!
got a 94 325 conv just like that I picked up for $1000 in california last year - Not a spot of rust on it - sun had killed the drivers seat though!
My drivers seat 💺 broke and so did my Dad’s in his
The old straight 6’s were awesome engines but the cooling systems were definitely the weak point
The cooling system is still crap as hell!
Had two of these, love em. Bought both for less than 750cad, both 5 SPD convertibles.
I own a 318Ti, 1998. Love it, very reliable. Amazing fuel economy. Hatchback is handy too!
Just bought one myself, same year, how’s it holding up?
The Old BMWs are such a beauty. I hope Tennessee is treating you well Scotty‼️
I have a 2010 BMW 320i sedan. It's one of the most reliable modern BMWs. I am not having any major problem with it yet until now. I hope that it stays that reliable for more years!
I heard the N43 (engine used on that) had some problems with the oil consumption and that the vacuum pumps break often
@@Raulz0r2 You can hear a lot of things about them. The previous owner took care a lot of it. And he never neglected regular maintenance. That's why I got such a good car and no I didn't have any of these engine problems. Everyone I showed the car to thinks I bought it from the dealer since it still looks like brand new
@@Edwin-km4xk very nice, it's great to hear there still are good cars to be found in the used market, I am also looking into getting an E90 LCI
Edwin ?? That gen 3 series is rated one of the most unreliable cars on the road ...I work on them for a living and I’m a bimmer guy
@@2uned08 For sure it's gonna be unreliable if people don't do the maintenance stuff on time which is not a cheap thing. And for sure the N54 335i with 2 turbos is less reliable than a simple naturally aspirated 4 cylinder one. So it all depends on the owner and on the car condition. Mine was very taken care of and is really a rare car to find in a such condition. And that was the reason I bought it. And that's why it's reliable with me
Next Video....Never Buy A 1000 dollar convertible BMW in red.
Nope its solid
*if it has a 35i badge on the back
Scotty didn't forget to remind us again about his wife's Lexus he got for his wife for 3 grands with 60,000 miles.
@kkthxk yeah, you know, his father died.
Many new people watch so its just to let them know
He literally stole that Lexus from his customer! If I were him, I wouldn't have revealed what he paid; he has been nicknamed "Swindler Scotty" ever since!
@@johnpflug1567 he only got a good deal on it cuz he was scotty and hooked him up, If it was anyone else he’d prob ask 5k
@@Rekt-M8-v4 i want a car like that
Spot on scotty! The 80 and 90s were the best decades for BMW ! They started playing the planned obsolescence game starting with the E60 til present....
Scotty can you do a drive in your 94 celica thanks. We’d love to see you drive it.
He sold it
@@bronzepkmn when???
I bought it for $400.
Sold it when he got that gt-four
Yep, I bought a 1999 BMW E36 328IC for $2k and the first thing I did was upgrade all the cooling system components since they are known for issues. I swapped all plastic parts to aftermarket stainless steel and aluminum parts. I have had zero trouble. I even swapped out my fading plastic headlights with glass headlights with the angel eys halo rings for safety. Older BMWs are very dependable as long as you maintain them and know what parts should be proactively upgraded.
My grandma had a 93 325i sedan, loved that car!!!!!!
Mines a 94 325i sedan 5speed manual. Drives like a dream
e36 bmw"s were Bullet proof I've owned 3 of them, e46 and up are money pits oh the good ole days
You beat me by 4 seconds with your comment.
E46 are still ok. But the others were bad altho the f80 looked good but not as good as the e30. Why dont they just make a e30 again. Sales would be x1000
I had a e36 328i convertible, it was a solid car. The only thing that went out on the car was the water pump. I had it for 5 years, did the normal maintenance. I ended up selling it. I bought a 6 speed manual e46 330xi a couple years ago, never had an issue, done the normal maintenance, it's not a hard car to work on.
@@patrykrog8121 cause it wouldn't make sense
German made e46 are nice get a 330i
3:22 wow, Tennessee really cleared the whole road for Scotty 😂😂
Old BMW straight-6 cars were still relatively simple to work on. I had a '94 E34 model 540i as my first car, loved it, but it was a V8 and couldn't fix simple power steering stuff without lifting the motor. I loved the power of the V8 but envied the simplicity of the I-6.
M50, M52 and M54 are the best BMW engine, and combined with the E36's compact body makes it a pleasure to drive.
I daily a 1996 pre facelift e36 328i - in my ownership I’ve put 54,000km on it, that’s in the last 2.5 years! There have been a few things I’ve down in my ownership like the clutch kit to a single mass one, brakes and oil changes / flushes. The cooling system had been replaced entirely by the last owner. This is the 5th car I have ever owned and while 200,000km motors sit on the market for $700 I’ve found my daily. This car has shown me day in day out what proper engineering leaves you with. A reliable investment! 😄 362,000km in the dash as of last night. Cheers Scotty - glad you made another e36 post!
As I said in another video of yours, E36 BMWs are the best! I got 450k miles before the interior started falling apart.
This is before they started adding all the extra crap that makes the car less reliable and they weigh less (by 1k pounds). As long as you do the maintenance these things last forever!
i love my 2005 330ci ZHP bmw. taking care of things before its urgent has worked out well for me thank God
E46 is probably the last BMW I'd buy
I had an E46, besides many electrical issues it was a great “zippy little machine” as Scotty would say
Its an E36
oh really
I had an E46 3 series too. Only electrical problem was a window regulator. No major problems at all, and very easy to work on.
I just tunned my 323ci E46 20 year old looks great and feels so good M52tu25 solid Engine.i just put in. intake manifold, both camshaft, from M54B30 zhp engine, headers, 3.73 gear ratio differential (automatic transmission) ==》 otherwise 3.46 gear ratio for Manual. Then Remap ECU in order to Get the maximun advantage of all Mods.
@@nelsonmelgar999 u used ista to remap ecu?
Owned a couple of these E36s easily my favorite of my collection of cars. Sold my last one 1992 with a M50 last summer. Currently have a M54 powered 2006 bmw x3 with a 6 speed gearbox
Damnit not the E36 tax is going to be stronger.
E36 BMWs were the last of the best. Can't kill a M50/M52 engine. In Australia we had 5 speed auto.
"But this is a 94" 😂
I have a 94 coupe with 275k miles. I did a manual swap on it. Last year I sent it a little too hard one time and money shifted. Went from 2 back to 1. The only thing that broke was the clutch that I bought on eBay lmao. Put the stock used clutch on there and have been driving the car ever since. Has a tune and custom exhaust. Super fun to drive. I ended up buying a sedan last year and manual swapped it as well. I daily drive my coupe so we'll see how long it lasts taking some abuse.
Bought my E36 325i new in 94. Drove it until I bought my 2008 535i E60. Gave the 325i to my brother. I had just replaced the original clutch. Had put about 180K miles on it.
I regret owning an 03 ram

About that hissing sound when you use the brakes, is your mother-in-law with you when this happens?
hahahahaha
Most honest straight forward TH-cam mechanic i have followed so far on here. You are amazing Scotty 👏 great sense of humor when it comes to.the truth. Lol
God bless.
My wife has a 2002 E46 325 bought new. Never a mechanical problem of any type. On the other hand, the ECM failed in year 5. But never another problem since.
We need someone honest like Scotty for President 🇺🇸
Maybe he could make the government run like a clock.
The USA is an endless money pit.
Yes, Scotty represents american spirit at it best, so different from every thing that represents USA today.
Honest people don’t run for office. Unfortunately
@@brunovrancic8330
United States is still the greatest country on planet Earth. And it is not like the media represents it. But we are certainly under attack by anti-American one world order types.
When my 2014 Mercedes C250 breaks down which is too often , I drive the 1994 325i .Have averaged just under $1000 per year over 17 years ownership . And that silky smooth I-6 is just awesome. 30 mpg on the highway .
I’ve had 2 E36’s now and I love them, I buy them for under $1,500. I run them to the ground then scrap them but god do I love driving them, so much fun, smooth engine, and solid handling!
You better hold on to them now they are raising in value

E36 are great cars, my favorite BMW, and one off my over all favorite cars. I have had my 1995 E36 since 2004.
Scotty knows his stuff. Even if youre rich never buy new its a rip off
I own this exact car as a coupe and in a beautiful color. glad it's Scotty approved.
I've always thought that BMW's were no where near as bad as Scotty sometimes says. I have a 2006 325xi (e90) 6 speed manual with 165k miles, runs great , fun to drive. Have had few problems with it. Everything he said about those i6 BMW motors is true.
My neighbor had one of those, same year and would beat the hell out of it every time he drove it. Drove it like that for years and the thing was still running. They are indeed tanks.
Does it have a Toyota engine?🤔
No its an M50B25
Adam lz built one like that one with a Toyota 1jz engine, The only difference is that his is a coupe
No it’s a bmw engine ...the new Toyota Supra has a BMW engine to
BMW with a 2jz is a good marriage

These videos from Tennessee are amazing! I love the calm quiet environment while he shows off amazing cars and fixes them too!
Is this rare version with turn signals installed?
Custom.
I love my 08 328xi, straight six , Scotty's right they drive like a dream,
some of us are just like Scotty, why ? Im his age and learned how to repair all my own cars since 16 yrs old. So up till today I can rebuild my own motor, and Im a painting contractor. This comes over not wanting to tow a car to a repair shop that see’s you as a sap needing them for any price they quote you caus your stuck with them. Taking risks in life diving into your own repairs gives a sense of pride and immense confidence in your abilities.
Take the risk of doing major repairs at home ( love youtube videos and those who share their expertise). My first rebuild of my 1985 Honda CRX
motor was without help. It was the high fuel model and worth keeping. We are like Scotty because connecting with your car on this level allows you to self diagnose problems on the spot, even while traveling . Why wouldnt you want to know about your cars mechanical workings.
Repair shops hate people like me, they detect Im asking questions they would rather not answer so they can inflate the quote.
I know too much now, so I end up doing repairs to my own vehicle that most shops dont do anyway. Most shops do simple repairs, they arent into rebuilding motors. Start with a vehicle that is a second car you buy just to experiment on while you have a backup car.
Learn something. Some of this stuff isnt that difficult, it just takes guts to try. My last repair was my 2000 Ford E250 intake manifold and gasket.
It looked daunting to see all the stuff that needed to be removed before you get the manifold off. I did watch a video, but it was hard to see the steps he took to remove his manifold. Reason I did this work, the van isnt worth that much to pay 1,000 for a shop to do it, just as you do more and more of these repairs, your vehicle becomes reliable more and more that you do it yourself. Any other van might have too many problems on the horizon you cant forsee. After 10 yrs of ownership and my own buildup of repairs, Im confident so much more in this vans longevity.
So when you think Scotty is cheap, that has nothing to do with it. New cars are expensive to buy, Id rather see less mechanically inclined people to lease less expensive cars and upgrade them every 3 years. You can lease for 185.00 per month a car like a VW Jetta, never pay for repairs and drive a new car so often.
hugot12 Sounds inspiring. Sadly the four times I tried to do something on a car I reached half way because I didn't have the right tools nor was very happy about breaking stuff.
Since kid I pursue disassembling everything I can trying to repair whatever it is (but lacking enough knowledge).
I should say only about 30% ends up in the same shape it was before. The rest either breaks or is left incomplete and occupying space for years to come...
@@apexseal2811 Trust me I had my share of broken things, but in the process through more years and buying tools, it paid off in good experience.
Alot of auto parts loan the expensive necessary tools like ball joint compressors, strut coil compressors. There is no reason to believe everyone needs to bust knuckles on cars. I admire guys making easier money with more brains than me, let other guys do their repairs.
Sounds like you gave it the yankee try at it. My dad always said, whatever work you do, just be the best at it.
thanks for sharing your experience
hugot12 I'm just a beginner at it, only 21 yo. Hopefully I can do something about it lol.
I got a very very long way to go. Process of learning requires effort, time and of course (IMO) giving it a try with hands on to apply theory.
Cheers.
Good video Scotty I have 94 325i 4dr and a 8th generation maxima . The Beamer handles better and better gas mileage 214,000, still fun to drive silky smooth feels like a glove .
Who is this ? Where’s the real Scotty Kilmer ?
The Scotty I know would never talk any good about BMW
It's called an E36 Scotty, and yes, they're pretty cool machines with great handling.
Scotty what do you think about the older 1991 Mercedes Benz 190e! With the 2.3 engine?
See I totally agree with you on this Scotty, it is the exact same thing with the older Mercedes Benz. Those things were built indestructible and there are many that are out there with 300,000 to 500,000 miles on them.
Great video and thanks for what you do Scotty!
Hell officially froze over!
Perfect. And there were leaves near the under-hood cowl which probably don't 'hurt' anything
Scotty is getting fun cars now!
The manual is game changer for e36.
Scotty, the amount of content you put out is amazing. Thank you
Good job Scotty explaining that BMWs for the old ones like you said are good cars . As always good infoscary thank you always appreciate you Cynthia Medina
No matter where Scotty goes, his customers cars have leaves filling the under hood area. And he stopped on the main road for his acceleration test, collisions galore behind him for sure
Hes in the country
@@higgpigg4326 Scotty pulled over and stopped on the side of a highway with 18 wheeler trucks whizzing by.
I have a 96 328i that I bought for $1800 with 175k miles. It was completely stock, with only 3 previous owner and came with a bunch of service records to show it had its tune ups on time.
Love the car to death, the only big issue it gave me was the radiator cracked so I ended up replacing it with a Mishimoto Aluminum Radiator. Done a couple thing to it like swapped the m52 Manifold for the m50,CAI by KA Motors, a catback, tuned by RK and lowered it with BC coilovers and now the car feels even better than before. These older E36s really are amazing.
What about 328i 2007 ? Has 150k mileage for 4K ?
I had a bmw e30 m3 bought it for $1200 and sold it for $23,500 years later I enjoyed that car so much I know I know I’m so stupid for selling it
Only thing I'd change would be the headlights, maybe paint the lower trim or purchase a ECS tuning body kit just to give it a more aggressive look
Ive got my 2nd 'straight-6' BMW.... 320i.... 16 year old wagon. Fast as F%&K.
Picked one up last year for that price for my Son! Really nice car. M50's a great engine. and being a CA car - completely rust free.
Woah! That’s surprising!
I've ridden in one of these before, it had 89k miles on, and it rides so smooth. Everything, just smooth.
*slaps the only good BMW*
Scotty: this baby can fit a lot of MILES on it!
For a grand, not bad! Bought a 02 mustang for the same price. Perfect engine
The reason why Scotty would buy this BMW is because it's a 94 model just like his Celica
Hate to say he's mostly right. That's why I have 2 BMW 3 series non turbo sixes.
I miss my 94 BMW 318i. Great MPG, solid, and smooth. Hydro locked and engine ceased. Think I’ll look around for another one.
This is where I totally agree with Scotty being a BMW obsessed fanatic lover, I love bmw because they are good cars and can last a long time but we need to take care of them like any other vehicle. I had a 1991 bmw 525i and my light bulb went out to monitor the rpm and the temperature gauge and my brother drove while it was over heating and blew the engine, it only had 235,000 miles on it. My wife had a 1994 bmw 530i with 260,000 and I have a1999 bmw 740il with 212,000. I need to change the timing chain guide on it. Gonna cost $$$$ but it is fun to drive!! My cousin had a 1987 528ie with 360,000 before a truck hit him and totaled it.
good old m50
Exactly why i just bought an e36 330i and swapped everything including suspension and body panels and engine with an s52 and m3 parts.
E36 330i? Do you mean E46?
@sayitaintso2900 lol this was a long time ago and i ment to say 328i
Own a few E36’s myself and I must say, it’s probably the latest bmw I’d ever own
a friend of mine had one of these with like 400 thousand km on it and is still driving it as far as I know as a daily driver/drift car almost every other weekend
Scotty is the type of guy to rev up his engine
The type of guy 2 stepping at the car meets at the taco bell parking lot
@@T.Lspitz lmao...the image in my head.
The nicest car ever on Scotty Kilmer Channel 👍
My 2005 330ci has 233k miles. Still going strong! :D
The best BMW built was the 1981 528 l. First year for the 5 spd manual, last year before E designation, last year before motronic ignition. Bulletproof. In 82 they effed it up with the E model.downhill ever since. Speaking from experience, I have owned 35 of them. ( bought and sold).
YEES, YEEESSSSSS, YYEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS, THE SWALLOW (their nickname, swallow, the bird) IS FINALLY APPRECIATED YEEESSSSSSSSSSSS

I had a 2003 Lexus IS300 manual with the Supra inline six. Some call it a Toyota Altezza, I get it. Most fun for 215 horses for sure. I miss that car more that my two ex wives.
Welcome to the club Scotty 😉 you made a great choice on buying a E36. You won't be disappointed 😁
why does he keep going back to Huston every time he starts the video.
Back log to upload.
I love the E36 from the 325i up to M3 great cars
Scotty would you recommend replacing the automatic transmission fluid in this BMW or would that be a huge mistake? Comments welcome! Thanks
Just replace the fluid and filter, don't do a flush.
M54 even Scotty loves that engine ,it's my favourite bmw engine.
That's a m52
Scotty I love you ❤️😘
in germany it is a typical left lane car, but this one has only the 2.5 R6, and as shown it doesn't have much acceleration and the push forward, i personally drive a 2.8 V6 Mercedes E280 W210 from 1997 and its got the push forward but it could be a bit more, if you want a left lane car then be sure that its got a very good 0-100 kmh/0-60 mph like from 8 seconds or better and good brakes are also important
Lmao he was just stopped on the road 😂
In the center lane too!
But panzer tanks were unreliable 😂
Funny thing about everything people say E36 are good at, E30 does better, except for the safety and electrical stuff. Sure E36 Does do more power, and the M50 is more reliable than M40, but thats about it in my opinion, just throw a M50 into E30 and u got an amazing car for yourself. Biggest problem with E30s is that their prices are insane.
I remember when car leasing first started the selling point was and still is, you can drive a new luxury car every 3 years. Reality of leasing is it sucks money out of your pocket so you can look like good driving a car you can't afford. It's better to buy a 2 or 3 year old luxury car.
I agree mostly, but if you can't afford it new. U may not be able to afford it used..i.e. out of warranty repairs and maintenance.
Seriously, I just don't get why people lease.. Why would anyone pay $500+ a month for 3 years instead of buying an older version on the same car for less. At the end of the 3 year lease you won't have a car, but if you purchase used, you will have that car as yours after 3 years.

You can purchase a warranty for $2k that will last 3 years.
I rather spend the $15k on a used car versus paying $500k a month for 3 years on a lease. At the end of the lease you have no car.
@@mamadouaziza2536 agreed. Plus with a lease you are bound to certain rules like limited miles. Something that can cost even more
