Finally!!!! BMW E30 M3 Vs Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.3

[freeride53]

Is that Sean's car your talking about? I've seen that car and it's very clean. Good price for such a low-mileage example in which everything works.

I'm looking to buy Sean's Pug Mi16. He's got some cool cars and he takes good care of them.

lolwut middle easterns driving pugs wut

But in all seriousness, post pics of the 405? :pimp:

I would not want the US Spec 190e. But I would take the 190e Evo I or II

Evo II:

a buddy of mine is planning on selling his 190e cosworth with 46,xxx original miles with dogleg transmission. Car is located in North NJ, I think hes looking to get 8 or 9K, if anyone is interested hit me up and ill pass on the info. Once i get more info i think he'll have me do a FS thread.

i love my 2.3-16! I just picked one up for $1500 that runs and drives :D obviously a little rough around the edges but yeah... I made a project thread with it and will be doing slow but steady updates.

i love the merc and m3 equally. both epic cars with an amazing motor sport pedigree. i can't wait till my m3 is running so i can do my own comparisons.

that 190e sounds amazing (maybe even better than the M3).

I'd love to have one for the street, but no question the M3 for the track.

my cousin ran a 190e for a while it had been in the family for years was passsed down by my grandfather who babied the car they are very strong reliable and smooth nothing like that merc feeling of floating on a cload

Amusing and had realistic points. I like both but I'm biased. I like the 190e It's a nice car and since I can't find a 190e-2.6 Blackline, I'll keep my E36 as a daily driver.

[Emre]

I have to agree. The dogleg is cool, but they're a bitch to find and at the end of the day not nearly as cool as an e30 m3.

The Euro M3 had the same Getrag close-ratio, dog-leg gearbox. There was a difference in the shift linkage, but the boxes are basically the same.

aannnddd there it is... Mercedes wins. Clearly the better car.

"Its mission was clear from day one; to beat that pesky Mercedes and it did it everywhere"

[*peter griffin voice] Good, good [*peter griffin voice]

190 looks like an old man's car.

LONG LIVE M3!
