Nice choice egan! Now drop that US 3.2L and put in the euro spec 3.2L 
My friend has a 99 M coupe with a Conforti intake and chip he got from turner motorsports iirc. I love driving it
He wanted to get I believe Eissman (sp?) exhaust but damn exhaust for his car is expensive. At a minimum of about $1100+ but I'm sure it wouldn't be an issue for you

Like a dream. It's a whole different kind of power. Handling is superb, but more than that you feel connected to the car and the road.
Obviously I need to drive it more and get used to everything, but my initial impression is that it is going to be a blast to drive. While my STi had oodles of power and handling it didn't feel nearly as refined.

But if I really wanted to swap, I know for a fact that an LS-1 will fit.

That Eismann exhaust price is cheap (I've actually seen it for closer to $2K). I looked up the exhaust that came on my car and it is $3K+ (AC Schnitzer).

Egan: I can't see what interior you have. Is it the tan ostrich option? If so that is my favorite. Tan interior + that blue = McAwesome good looks

Thanks, when I googled M Coupe it brought up the M3 page...
I assume the 8 means the M
So the License plate should read:
