    23

    86 325 when I turned 15, sold it at 17 to buy a 90 325i, sold it at 20 for the Subaru, then just bought the M3 at 23. So 5ish years of e30s, really more like 5 if you count the months.

          31 - had my first 318is for two years @age 22-23, another for a year or so around 29, and my current 318i for 8months now. Collectively though it seems like longer for some reason - probably because each time I got rid of one I always knew I'd get another...

            21 - have owned my E30 for 2 years now. I wasn't able to buy mine at the time (thought I liked my comfortable 04 audi more) so I convinced a friend to buy the car 4 years ago who sold it to my brother then finally to me. (finally got rid of the audi for it) If I had driven an e30 when mine was originally for sale I would have sold it instantly for it.

              21, got my first E30 when I was 19.

              There's a 17 year old here in Ottawa who is riding a bronzit 4 door.

                21, owned my e30 for almost 3 years, 3rd car I've owned out of 4 total.
                I plan to keep it as long as I can.

                  27. As my salary increased over the years, so did my ability to afford newer and nicer E30's :)

                    Got the car at 15, still have it at 22. Girlfriends come and go, my E30 is my beloved constant.
