Default Hellrot B3 3.0 Sedan

Hi all... another new B3 3.0 owner checking in... I'm a recent and happy owner of a Hellrot red E36 B3 3.0 Sedan.

My car seems to have a bit of a presence on the internets already. There's a Youtube video of the car when she was in Japan here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ve_jcklrgCc

It was imported by Zen Autoworks who still have lots of pictures of the car here:

This B3 has been in Quebec for the last few years, now in the Toronto area. The previous owners took good care of her, I plan to do the same!

Cheers,
Jeff

Yes hopefully it is, as that would mean mine was finally out of the shop! Just heard from my mechanic today they're trying to get the shudder out of the brakes.

Congrats on the purchase!

I hope the owner in Quebec took good care of the car as well since it came with full service records and was sourced by a very reputable exporter (Mark at Brave Auto) as well as the importer (Sean at Zen). I considered purchasing it from Mark when it was in Japan, but I didn't end up going for it:

New pics when you get a chance please!!!

Hi Scooter, interesting to hear you know of the car from when it was imported. Thanks for posting the link to those pictures, haven't seen that particular set before!

Here are a few pics from within the last month or so:
