    I get at least one thumbs up a week, and one "is that thing for sale"? plus the normal neck snapping head turn when i drive by certain places.

    yes! no fatties. our E30's have a passenger limit. id kno. had a chunky friend in my car before and it deffinately hurt the handling and acceleration.

    On Occasion. I have had a few offers to buy it, Mostly ricers that give the thumbs up though. I am sure they love the lifted iX stance. And then there is the guys who want to race. But I am sure that I notice other e30 way more than mine gets. Oh and there is always the CA natives that oggle my ride and tell there wives that they had one just like it in the day.
    Way more fun driving it than any of my other rides.

    not at first, but since i've been waxing her weekly i get compliments few times a week.

    yesterday some guy kept honking at me, i look at him, he gives the thumbs up and a nod.

    people at work say nice work all the time, but that doesn't really count since they see the progress daily.


    what i love is when someone runs up and yells, "DUDE, your e30!" then i know i made a new buddy

    Got one last night from a 20 year old E46 M3 driver. I was a bit in shock actually. And when I had the 5er middle aged women used to always give me "nice car" or "looks great." Also I am sure we may all have gotten this one... "your car is how old? Wow, I thought it was late 90's car."

    mtech always brings up questions, however with that car still in winter storage I've been driving the 5's

    The E28 has been called neat by an older women in the safeway parking lot. Thats about it, not too flashy (just what I wanted in that car)

    The M5 Touring on the other hand

    1) Whoa, IE the BMW Northwest Parts department manager
    2) You did that? BMW Northwest Service techs
    3) We have no chance in selling you a new car do we (sales guy from above)
    4) I didn't know they made a wagon version!
    5) Nice //M badges (my fav! a quick depress of the loud pedal shuts them up)
    6) Holy fucking sleeper!

    The Pro3..not so much, but I only bring it out to track/race events anyway

    I had a guy flag me down before and he offered me $2000 right there for my car, haha.
    It really is a great conversation starter though. I've gotten into like 20-30 minute conversations with people before that started with a compliment either on my car, or on theirs.

    I don't think it helps that my car hunts a little on idle, so idiots probably think I'm revving it up in order to initiate some failery.

    That's probably true, specially when I live walking distance from HOLLYWEIRD. :D
