Rare E-30's What's the rarest E-30 out there?

[RCWells]

I have an 89 schwarz 325is, this i believe is the only color/year where BMW painted the bumpers a different color than the car, Diamond Schwarz.. Therefore the car is probably a little rarer than others? How rare is this? Please put your two cents in on rare original e-30's and what you believe is the rarest/ most valuable of them all.

My '90 was the same so no, I don't think this is very rare. Of course, after going back and actually browsin this thread, I see the ol Gilly Giles has already replied concerning the '90 325is that I speak of.

How about an august '94 e30. In our garage at the moment 8) :

Thats incredble! Would that make it a 95'?

A 94 e30? My belief system has been destroyed.

I believe the baur M3 touring cabriolet with the no sun roof option is indeed teh rarest

Why do you guys say Diamond-schwarz? It's diamantschwarz or Diamond Black.

My man, MY MAN!

Anyways the 320iS Italian Stallion came equipped with the S14. There's a guy here on the boards with one.

Thats August of 1994 . Most of the world puts the day before the month unlike us .

I thought it was pretty common knowledge that BMW carried over the smallest displacement engine models longer than the rest of the range .
I know the E21 315 and 316 carried well into the E30's production but I'm not sure how long they actually made the smaller displacement E30's .

I think he's talking about model years, ie my 10/90 325ix was sold as a '91 model year.

Yeah I know , but I'm saying that August might be a bit early to call it the next years model .

IT 320is arnt really that rare. ive seen a good 10 since ive been here in DE. however I have yet to lay my eyes on a e30 M3 'vert. so im gonna go with that. a convertible e30 M3.

[clavinZERO]

Yeah, it is for sure. Not sure what the reasoning was behind it.

The only thing I can think of is that possibly when the last of the '89 cars were painted Schwarz, maybe they'd stopped using that paint color, and they'd already had all of the bumpers painted Diamond-Schwarz, so they just went ahead and used them. Because as far as I know, and I could be wrong here, there weren't any Schwarz cars past '89, they were all Diamond-Schwarz.

my autotragic '90 (march of 90 production i think) was schwartz tho, with d-schwartz bumpers too.

what about a 3dr touring e30..

or a H26 Hartge Touring with paddleshift g/box

[tjmonsen5]

[Jand3rson]

Why do you guys say Diamond-schwarz? It's diamantschwarz or Diamond Black.

Is it really that big of a deal?

[Jhonno]
