What car did you give-up for the E30? Post pics

[brianao34]

It is a Honda, but I do miss it. For sentimental reasons.
And yes, those are e38 Style 5's I had filled & drilled before I even began to get into German cars. Haha

2002 325i

Owned it from 2003-2007, bought it at 28K miles, sold it at 79K miles. Pretty much got me through college. I sold it because I had pretty decent equity in it & wanted out while it had less than 100K miles.

Soooooooo

You don't sell a rust free, original paint SWB Porsche to keep a very nice e30.

Or do you?

Sold this to buy my E30...


But I also had my supercharged SVT Focus for awhile too which I sold after 7 years so I could focus on my E30. Still miss that car, incredible cars to toss around.

Still contemplating my decision. I miss the rumble...

Gave up my VW R32. Was a great car, and sometime I miss it, but only in the winter when my E30 is parked. Mine was the white one

1998 Neon R/T with factory ACR/Koni suspension. This was my 4th 1st gen Neon, loved those cars, one was turbo, went 13 years of my life with at least one. I'm still not sure getting rid of it for an E30 was a very good decision, the Neon cost less to buy/own/repair, was in better condition, got better mileage, cornered better and was FAR more reliable. I have 3x what I sold my Neon for into my E30 and my E30 isn't as nice and constantly costs me money, the E30 is only marginally quicker in a straight line and outperformed by the Neon in basically every other area. But with the E30 people actually stop and compliment my car, where with the Neon I've literally had people randomly yell "Neons suck" at me out their windows. As much as I don't give a fuck what anyone thinks, it got old driving a car you constantly have to defend.


This car has seen it all, Miami Beach to the Vegas strip to the Golden Gate Bridge, Mulholland Drive in the Hollywood hills and Lombard St. in S.F.. Chicago, New Orleans, Cadillac Ranch in TX, over the continental divide in the mountains of Wyoming through 70mph winds. In Dec. 2011 I put 4000 miles on it in 3 weeks. Its still going strong in the care of a serious Neon enthusiast owner back in Ohio, and I can buy it back whenever I want to go get it.








The turbo ACR I had before that:

Such a great car. If it weren't for this car I'd probably still be into muscle cars and I'd be driving a shitty foxbody.

5 speed swap. Headers, m50 intake manifold, S52 intake cam on intake side, m54b30 intake can on exhaust. SAP delete, exhaust cutout. Ect.

never knew a Neon was cool
