    I Went To A Concours d'Elegance And The Best Car Was An E30 BMW M3

    That must have been one helluva clean M3! It's always nice to see E30's getting props from the snobby 'concourse d'elegance' crowds.

    Perhaps it’s lack of discipline, or lack of taste, or lack of culture, or lack of understanding, or even lack of respect, but out of a field of over a hundred cars, the best damn thing about my Saturday afternoon at the fifth Pinehurst Concours d’Elegance was an E30 M3.

    Click bait headline. I thought the M3 had won Best in Show - which I was going to be really surprised. Considering what goes in to a lot of those cars to get there (talk to Keith M sometime.)

    It's a nice M3, but it's also a red M3. There's a bunch of pristine examples around, and I question why he was so impressed with that one vs the E9 next to it.

        Nice looking M3 but I would probably be more "wowed" by an FXX or a pristine Miura, unlike this guy haha.

          Yeah, it is a bit misleading, but I wasn't sad to read the article.

            Take jalopnik articles with a grain of salt. They are more focused on click counts than actually producing good content.
