I know 2 people that have bought cheap ropey e36 m3's for drifting. They've ended up throwing more money at them than it would have cost to just buy a decent one. vanos problems was a big thing
Never ever ever ever ever heard of a vanos problem on a 3.0 which are the only m3's you can buy for less than 3k.

Cheapest evo ive seen was 3.5k and even so the vanos may growl but complete failure is very rare.

And yes i would buy a ropey m3..
