You know what, you're absolutely right. I never thought about it in that light but after reading your posts above it does make sense.
The Euro motor would've made the E36 M3 a better car when it was new, but now that it is two decades old, the US motor actually is somewhat of a blessing & makes it a more attractive used buy, especially for the purposes of track duty. The E36 M3 is an awesome car regardless of US-spec, Euro-spec, swapped.

Enjoy in good health, i love the techno violet.
