PARKER: Note this blurb:


To the insiders, these are the E30 models. To a lot of people, they are the protypical yuppie-mobile. And while their original upwardly mobile professionals have moved on newer and larger BMWs (or, more likely, Lexuses), these models are still riding on, thanks mostly to their reasonable simplicity and a wide range of available parts — though having the dealership keep it in as-it-came-from-the-factory condition is said by insiders to be an expensive fool’s game.

There’s even a racing series that features only this model car.

i picked mine up for $800, 5 speed, no rust, american racing steelies with brand new 30"" tires.... Funny thing is i get better gas mileage then my e30 with it...

They sell for next to nothing on your local craigslist and the 4.0 never dies, seriously. Worth every penny
