Jimmy Bailey has been a big fan of the E46 M3 since he first started working in the automotive industry. So when he went looking for a well-balanced sports car of his own that offered the full package, the choice was clear. "Even in stock form they are genuinely fun to drive", Bailey mentions. But today, stock form is not what he is rolling with.
