We are celebrating 50 years of the BMW 3 Series with a great story. Frank Kohn discovered his dream car as a child: the BMW M3 Compact E36. Unfortunately it was a prototype that never made it into series production. So Frank built it himself! His brother, Tom, shares his passion. Together they own 43 BMWs.
