Do you have a picture? One of how many? Where/why was it made this way?

Meh ...like I said .

This thread is now officially gay .

I hear you guys, Painting my car right now, please see my post under bodywork and give me any suggestions! Anyway 89 Schwarz had Diamond schwarz bumpers from the factory which makes it somewhat a oddball= rarer. I'm not saying that makes it extremely rare, What i'm trying to do is get a thread started where people could discuss/ tell about what they believe is the rarest e-30 around, either original factory or maybe even rare e-30 race cars and what is believed to be the rarest/most valuable e-30 in existance.

I once saw a picture of an e-30 chassis/body that was completely carbon fiber, that must be pretty rare, Glass sunroofs are rare, I just want to start a thread of who the rarest of them all is...with the majority of emphasis on original from the factory cars and also some talk of rare parts.

PLEASE KEEP THIS THREAD RARE.

and im letting you guys know that i think 93's are VERY rare.

[Jarvis]

Oh I know there were 93s, I just meant there are so few that I can't even remember seeing one for sale.

[Fanzotti]

Lets talk RARE!

Yeah there were definitely 93' E30 cabrios .

And yes I meant the LSD ..obviously .

And damn that ti diff would effectively turn your trans back into a 4-speed .

[E30trash]

i heard there were 30 of the cabrios in '93. there was an immaculate one for sale a couple weeks ago on craigslist. he said his was one of 17 from that year?

[Jarvis]

The last 93' Cabrios have got to be some of the rarer and more expensive E30's ...at least here in the states .
Plus the same late 318 verts optioned with the 4.26 (or twenty-something) have got to be pretty rare .

I've seen tons of '92 325iC's for sale, but zero '93s that I can remember.

I thought all 91-92 318iC's had 4.27 diffs? (vs. the coupe/sedan's 4.10, to make up for the extra weight) LSD was an option though. Want a really rare diff? Find an E36 318ti auto (4.45) with the LSD option.

Don't know if I'm ready to accept this whole diamond black bumpers thing yet but heres what I think would be the rarer E30's :

I understand why BMW put black bumpers on the base model euro cars to make the more expensive models look even better in comparison, but light sparkly black on black? Dumb.

Yeah, I agree. The funny thing is, if I were to swap to plastics, I'd love to get a set of those satin-black euro plastics. No need to worry about paint-matching. :up:
