Hello, I am Josh.
I am searching for an e30 to buy, and am doing some research on which year/model is best for me.
I have been searching, asking around and getting lots of opinions.
What am I getting the car for? A replacement for my 1988 Toyota MR2. I autoX the car, but I also use it as a DD whenever I feel like it and the weather is nice. So I'm not building an all out track car, but the car will be raced. I am getting sick of how slow my mr2 is in the straights, even though it handles so well. Just not impressive when you get your doors blown off by a base model 1990 Nissan sentra. You feel me?
Before I pour roughly $5000 into a good turbo build on my mr2, I wanted to look into this option as an alternative. I've always wanted one, why not?
The kind of information I am hoping for is like what a friend of mine who worked for a BMW racing team told me, he warned me of getting a pre 88 or so e30, they're prone to wiring harness issues, etc. he told me to get a 2 door 89 325is. Is it worth it to hold out till I find that exact model?
Any input is appreciated. Thanks!
