Hey everyone
I remember there was a thread about this way back in the day on the old old e3s but alas its long gone. My uncle's best friend owns a shop specializing in Volswagon cars. One of my friends back home has dealt with him alot but he knows his stuff. As Im in the market for a new car Ive narrowed it down to a select three (the e30 being my number one choice). The other two being an mk2 golf gti or a 1991-1995 nissan sentra se-r. Now of the latter two I would much rather drive the v-dub as Im a lil sick of nissans after my experiences with my POS pathfinder. Now what is everyones opinion on this car. I kinda like it. The lines are classic with the bigger euro bumpers and 4 headlights and the 16v motors are real quick. Even better is that my uncles friend can build em up for about 1500 to make enough power to run 14.1's. Im not sure exactly what mods he does but the friend I mentioned went this route and the 14.1 is his personal time. This seems damn impresive to me. This in conjunction with the lines and german engineering make it seem like a viable option. Now I know this is an e30 forum but the only gti forums I could find online (mind you I did a quick search) were in the UK and I know at least a couple of you know some stuff about em (Stu., werent you going to get one before your e30). Plus I think I can get a mint one much cheaper than I could get a mint e30. Any ideas comments suggestions?
