Cash? No kidding, that's the currency, right? The cars are cheap/old enough now many are beat up and need maintenance in a bad way. Be careful if you buy one, clear corners and a chip are a sure sign of neglect, at least to me.

M3 for 4 season use.

There is one challenge here. The brakes on an E36 M3 are rather large and make the use of less than 17 inch wheels an issue. Finding real snow tires won't be cheap. From experience, I can tell you that mine is TOTALLY useless in the snow. Like tits on a bull. Remember "All Season" means No Season.
