    Fun if you are planning to make mods or not!

    I purchased this book as a reference for future projects - i.e. no plans to actually make mods at this time. With that said, I have found that I am reading the book cover to cover, and there are projects for all levels of mechanic. I have jumped into a few already, and recommend the book to anyone who is thinking about tweaking their car OR just looking for some good technical reading!

  • Great book if you love your BMW!

    I love this book the projects in it are as simple as changing the oil to as complicated as adding a supercharger. Anything and everything you can think of is covered in this book. The author is a MIT grad who loves his german cars and makes the topics easy. I think some of the costs of products are a little underestimated, but that is a given with what has happened in the last two- three years! This is a must read if you plan on doing any of your own work on your car. A great project book that gets the ideas flowing!

  • Worth every penny if you want to do as much as you can in your garage.

    Great details, descriptions and photos for your e36 BMW 328i. I have the convertible and the top is also covered in this book. I'm an engineer and I couldn't believe the level of detail in this book. Worth every penny if you are like me and want to do as much possible in the driveway/garage. There are lots of other books about this vehicle, but most are cut and dry procedures, whereas this book's aurthor has a great sense of humor and keeps it fun and educational at the same time.

  • light weight with great features

    this book is a must have for three series owners. thanks
