m325ix, that looks like it's going to be a fun and fast car! (like it wasn't already

)
Jeff, here's how you swing it: Your '72T will always be your "fun" car, or "project" car, whatever the case may be.
But, you need a daily driver, right? An E36 M3 works perfectly in that role, just don't tell anyone how much fun it is to drive

.
Then, when it's time to go to the hardware store, you can rationalize having a truck, as well.
Pretty sneaky, eh?
