[matias88e30]

when u DRIVE drive a new car and u realize theres nothing like DRIVING YOUR e30!..

when ur girlfriend pays rent for 3 months so u can rebuilt ur heads and get as many turbo parts as u need to boost it.....

when u drive it everyday to work and doin 75mph its just chilling...

plus i agree with a lot of thing other guys had said... thats whats makes us all have one thing in common: WE LOVE E30's

When you offer to get the passenger door for people only because you know where to put pressure on the door to get the seals to line up upon closing.

[BMWerke]

when driving an auto is frowned upon
when you can buy an extra e30 for $350 just for the spare parts
when 200k+ miles is considered "low"
when the seats creek as you hit a bump but it reminds you everything is ok
when ALL E30S SMELL EXACTLY THE SAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[caffeinatedsoap]

-When your friends make jokes about asking you to take them for a ride in one of your BMWs, knowing that none of them work currently.
-When you have a BMW guy who supplies you with parts. (If you meet new people with BMWs you say "Oh you should have my BMW guy's number.)
-Having your broken e30 stuck at a friend or family member's house for more than a week.
-When you see an e36 M3 and think "That would make a good donor."

When someone asks "Hey you can drive my car (which is a 2007+ car) if I can drive your BMW" and you're like "You can drive mine, but I don't want to drive your car."
In high school I get this all the time, everyone's like WTF why don't you want to drive my car?

Nothing like an E30


When you wake up early on Sunday mornings, fill up your gas tank, and go for a drive by yourself forever.
When you keep your sunroof up, ALWAYS.

When your friends laugh at your "old gay BMW," you take them for a ride, and then they praise you forever.
When you play bumper tag with your friends cause you have diving boards and you'll always win.

[gofredo50]

When you slow down driving through neighborhoods you've never been to before, hoping to find an e30. Esp a clean one for sale for cheap.

[ReallyDirtyThirty]

When you have over six different options for getting to work when your car is broken down.

When everytime someone asks you why your car isn't running the first part of your answer begins with "Its actually a very common problem thats easy to fix..."

[AbeSonic]

...you can't wait til next paycheck to buy new (but probably used) parts for your car...
...you think of the parts you can buy FIRST with your paycheck then your bills...
You get excited when you see another E30 but then quickly get let down when you realize its a bronzit with no r3v limited decals or any other decal that may impress upon you his skills or mods. lol

[evandael]

... when the ladies crank your sunroof for you
... when you consider trading/selling and then verbally apologize to your car
... when you triple the purchase price of your car in mods... with no regrets
... there are mod lists on every scrap of paper laying around your apartment/work
... r3v is second only to google for page views on your computer

[e30BMart]

-when all the people at your school say y would you drive that p.o.s. but you dont care because they think there mom's civic is cool.

Don't know 'bout you but my friends in highscool all wish they had a car like mine!

...When you routinely drift around corners in the winter and passengers look at you with worry and you say, what?

...When you slam on your brakes just because you like the way your skin detaching from your face feels.

...When you feel that your car is reliable and wonder why the r3v community complains about stuff breaking all the time on their e30's

[e30trooper]

...When you turn on the heater and it only works for 1min.

[Thehemiman]

When you successfully convince 3 of your friends to buy e30's and then end up having to work on them.
