Where do the iX's sit on the totem of e30 coolness?

i always thought a turbo IX would be a beast. like being able to keep up with impreza STI's and wrx's.
when winter comes i plan to garage my car, get a cheap rust bucket ix that runs and romp the hell outa it. definately gonna get it as a autotragic so the rest of the family can get use out of it.

^Why not just teach the rest of the family to drive a manual?

when I could just get an easy going RWD E30 and call it a day. If I really needed AWD and reliability I'd get a Subaru.

That's what I would do..... oh wait I already have a subaru

Yeah autotragic is better choice for a "romp the hell outa" ix. There's more used auto transfer cases available and their cheaper then the manual ones.

Except for you can't really "romp the hell" out of an E30 with there crappy auto transmissions.

I've got a manual ix I picked up for cheap ($600) that I romp the living piss out of. I love it.

lol yeah true. Guess it depends on someones definition of "hell romping"

Oh I love tourings, they're kind of ugly but for me its a good way, I just know how much they get hated on around this forum. I saw one one time and did a U-turn just to try and follow it and check it out but it was gone...

Never really got a chance to inspect one up close and personal.

U can have tons of pics of mine :)
