      We towed our road race ghia on an open trailer with a 2.0 16v swapped rabbit truck.
      He'll, we had the bed filled with spares and race three and tools too.

      It was not fast, but it made it down the freeway and never let us down.

            I don't see why not. When I went down the shore for my senior week my E30 was pulling 900lbs+ of payload for 150miles rather easily. Though not close to the weight of a car, I wouldn't doubt it would pull a car for an extended period of time. I've pulled my friend's heavy ass Audi 100 out of a snow pile before too with good ease.

              lol I've towed a car with my stock Syncro. I think a swapped e30 will be fine

                I towed my '85 325 5 miles with my stock '87 325iS with only a tow strap, you should be ok.

                            edit: Yes, stopping in an E30 with that much weight is genuinely frightening. I've had to had my foot all the way to the floor sometimes.
