    Not saying it's pretty either.
    ugly for a modern e30, but sorta nice as a modern 2000c

    I became an e30 owner because I test drove it and fell in love. I have an e36 m3 (previously the favorite of all the cars I have owned) that I have decided to sell because of it. Soon to have an s50, zf trans., and 3.15lsd! Driving the e30 is an entirely different feeling. So lively and unique!

    Just my 2 cents :)
    strange...I just posted my 95 m3 on CL for a similar reason.

    I think bmw might think that they have been offering the reincarnation of the e30 via the 1 and 2 series. current regulations and consumers' increasing expectations for conveniences (Bluetooth, pwr seats, air bags, pedestrian impact protection, etc etc) are partially to blame. similarly, why doesn't chevy provide a nova II reincarnate or Luv Ford provide a 73 capri or a 71 bronco?

    the sad reality is that we (e30 lovers) are a minority when it comes to high volume marketing and revenue considerations.

    I, like everyone love the styling of an e30, what does it for me is the double headlights (e30's, old camaros, chevelles, 1st gen gtr's, datsun 510's all awsome). I was thinking if BMW would ever consider doing what American auto makers did with their classics in resemble a similar styling on a newer model. Probably never (might think of it as going backwards) but it would nice to see as most newer BMW models to me, seem generic. I think I would be the first in line to buy one ahah:p just wondering what everyone else thinks and the reason why you became an e30 owner?


    note:if someone has the skills to mach something up that would be pretty awesome
