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

[archie]

Four door family race car or the two door sporty M3?
Sporty M3 for me please!

[Balleristic31]

I lol'd at the m3 being a "star"

It just sounded silly to me.

M3 every time over the 190 though.

Points made about suspension seem completely irrelevant. Most enthusiasts would put GC's or KW in there anyway.

190e has multi-link rear suspension, more grip/stability

Plus a whole lot more bushes to wear out.

Paging Snitch

I love both cars; the Beige makes the 2.3 look like crap, but both cars a great; If I had the choice, I would have both an e30 M3 and a 2.3.

Definitely not better than the M3 though... Cooler? Objective, but definitely not better

But, who can't love a Mercedes with a giant rear wing? Its like.. the epitome of rice and class all in one

Only if you hit them when leaving the track...

^^^ Exactly. Finally some one who actually understands.

The 190 is clearly a better car, and Mercedes is clearly the superior car manufacture.

I thought the guy was an unbiased 3rd party and couldn't understand who would choose a 2.3_16 over an M3 (especially a sport evo) but it should be pointed out that Jason Cammisa is a long time 190 owner and member of 190revolution. Not exactly impartial. No wonder he chose the 190. His decision is based purely on his opinion without any reasoning behind it. He's basically saying, the 190 isn't as good as the M3, BUT it's the cooler car! lol. Quoted: "Jason Camissa from Automobile Magazine has one and the magazine did a nifty little article on his black 2.3 and the E30 M3 Sam Smith bought. You can read the article in the February 2007 issue."

Really. I would take the cosworth over the e30 m3 anyday.

Nope. When comparing and reviewing two old cars, it makes sense to compare them in their most stock form and explain the reasons why they were made that way.

Like I said in the last thread, the M3 is a track car that can be driven on the road, the 190cos is a road car that can be taken to the track.
