I personally think 87's and 89's are the best years.
87' 325iS if you want an early car but with alot of updated bits (updated HVAC, good dme, etc). Also has all power options. I like the 87' because you can either go late model retrofit, early model US spec, OR euro bumper goodness. The interchangeability on the 87' is great.
89 is also a great year because still no airbags, has pop out windows still, and all the late model goodness.-Brad, AlphaTeam Motorwerks, LLC

If I knew what I knew now I would have gotten an 89. I didnt research and thought I could switch out the airbag wheel for a newer single stage airbag wheel.

Ive owned a very early, early model, an 87 early model, a 1991 318is and a 1990 325i. I would have to say the 89 I have now has the best of all worlds. crank sunroof, and pop outs plastic bumpers, ellipsoid, and no airbags.

I think pretty much everything I've posted on this forum or any other would support the fact that I know more about this and a number of other cars than most other people do.
Perhaps I should add that includes knowing when I don't know everything. That was expressed earlier in this thread, but I know what I've experienced.Last edited by ELVA164; 03-03-2016, 08:27 PM.Interested in vintage cars? Ever thought about racing one?

You want to see receipts of me getting 27+mpg with any 87-octane 153 ECU you send me without hypermiling, I'd be happy to do it. You want to see receipts of me getting maybe 24mpg hypermiling with any late-model 87-octane ECU you send me, I'd hate doing it because the late-model ECUs make the car soft.
Don't be a prick.
