    I was never interested in BMWs, much less E30s. I knew they were expensive and that yuppies drove them, but that's about it. Only reason I own a BMW now is because the car was exactly what I was looking for, that and I wanted something a little newer than '67!

      I only bought mine because it was cheap, looked pretty good, and I needed a car. I was planning on just driving it until I got enough money, and then selling it to get what I really wanted, but I fell in love with it.

        I was into em the day my dad pulled up the driveway towing mine.
        I didn't know a thing about them.. but I fell in love with that car.
        It was supposed to be just a project for my dad to fix up and sell..
        But I spent so much time caring for it, my dad finally figured out how badly I wanted it and gave it to me.

            Brew got me into E30s like a year and a half ago. I had the dough for a used car, and was considering a few different things. Then I drove Brew's old 325e. I just loved the overall feel of it. I looked out for E30s, E34s, and even E32s. I considered a few higher mileage 5spd 735i's, and got screwed out of a deal on an awesome 535i. I finally ended up buying an '87 325is and I've been in love with E30s ever since.

                    Car died in an accident a while back. I think he sold the M3 he was building and may have left our ranks.

                          That is really too bad.

                          I realized I wanted one about 2 years ago, saw 5 of them all traveling together on the freeway, started researching about them then. Drove a few strictly transportation cars, (selling my ford escort soon) to start putting money into my 84 eta.

                            first time I noticed e30's was Randy Sparre's car. After that, BEN, then I finally got my dream e30 by then (I wanted a rust-free calypso coupe, 89 or 1990. I joined e30sport, then r3v. I started modifying my car in my garage (suspension). After breaking my control arm, I took it to a shop named Treehouse Racing while I went to school. The rest is history as they say.
