      they are nice cars, but the E30 is better overall. the benz will cost more to maintain and repair and the performance isn't up to a 325is.

      on the other hand they are pretty sexy cars, so if you want looks and comfort mafia style, go right ahead. but man, for $7k, you could get a lot of other really nice cars (not that I would ever spend that much on a car! haha)..

            ..... better than an e30 m3.
            Do you have any idea how rare that car is? I can almost GUARANTEE you there are less than 5 of those in the US. Normal 190E's don't look nearly that good.

              Yea i know, my point was that that specific one was hotter than any e30 ive seen.

              Good luck with whatever you do.

                they are pretty sweet on the highway I drove one for work in highschool and there are more than you think out there as there are 2 in lawrence, KS, but for fun factor stick with the e30 and you'll be alot happier

                  That one looks good, but have fun getting yours to look that nice. Better crack open the piggy bank......

                    Why are you selling your car again, just because you have had it for 2 years??
                    Doesn´t make a good case then

                    190´s have horrible manual trans´s and well auto´s are auto´s

                    Following your families tradition of not having a car for a long time makes no real sense,
                    If you are happy with the E30 then why sell it,,

                    any decent 190 is real hard to come by,, let alone a EVO..

                    Tuning, basically no such thing for 190´s,, at least in any real sense

                    If you are replacing to just to replace then you can´t be considered a real car fanatic or enthusiast automobiles, at least haven´t found your place yet

                      Dude whatever what are you thinking man? I think you should defineatly stick with the e30 and don't sell out to mercedes. I dont care though. But for real if I were you i would look for something like an 88' audi 5000s. I heard those are pretty nice. Thats the route I would go. But thats just me dude.

                        I liked my AUDI.

                        Forget the Evo, that wont happen. Instead see if you can find a normal 190e 2.5 24v. Those are basically thier version on the E30 M3.
                        Im now E30less.

                          Just a word to the wise.

                          - If you think BMW parts are expensive...
                          - If you think older BMW's have a lot of problems...
                          - If you get a lot of the attitude people give you for driving a BMW...


                          You're in for some serious fucking fun. Mercedes are baller cars, but an older one is going to require a hell of a lot more work than an older BMW.

                            well some real info on that car. a buddy of mine has a 190 and for a bit i was looking at them. if i had come across a 2.3 eith a manual he said to jump on it. it was more hp and revs better, the engine is really great.

                            drive and decide what kinda shape its in. the 2.3 is faster than the 2.6 accodring to my freind
