You know you are an E30 owner when......

[nickflic3]

When you and your friend have a whole hour long conversation about how bad ass s14's are and at the end you each arrive at a conclusion:

"BMW made the best 4 cylinder RWD cars ever!"
"Nissan made the best 4 cylinder RWD cars ever!"

Then proceed to look at each other in utter confusion

your ready to burn that mother fucker down after a very uncooperative 4 hour clutch bleed, but still smile when you start the car, put it in gear and actually move.

Well after my year of owning a e30, this is what i have to say

Spending hours looking for mods when you need to do maitenence.
Hardest decision in life is how big of a motor you can stuff in your car.
When you look for e30s and think that theirs dont look as good as yours, even on a bad day.
When you have a parts store repeated customer card and everybody there knows you by name and ask "what is it this time?", or are suprised your just their to get some car wash.
When you have parts in your trunk and they never seem to find a way out.
When you have a slight blemish on your car and you constantly polish it out. If it doesnt go away its more upsetting than your Grandpas death.
Looking in the parking lot checking to see if nobody hits your car.
When you spend your christmas and birthday money on new mods, or the last of your paycheck, and even times when you make extra money for new parts.


And last but not least, when somebody compliments your e30, in any way whatsoever, you get the biggest grin and stare at it in admiration.

You know you own an E30 when you're building your head in your bedroom..


you know you own an E30 when you get more offended if someone insults your E30 than your girlfriend :oops:

[Heysüß]

when you do a big job like replacing the rear subframe crossmember with new bushings all around and when you're done and ready to drive your brakes crap out and delay your enjoyment of e30 goodness for a while longer while you wait on new calipers

[BMWerke]

when your seat belt hangs out the car when the door is closed

[Fusion]

... you get weird looks because the hood opens the "wrong" way, you retort with an evil grin.
... you buy newer models of BMW just for the engine.

[Ryann]

When you're seriously thinking about taking out a secret 401k loan to buy your "dream wheels", but haven't yet because you know you'd have to explain to your old lady where the money came from.

When your Woman asks you to drive her car because the race only suspension kills her ass.

P.S. That bitch is long gone, my baby did not like her xD

When you break down and all is forgiven the next morning when you glimpse those body lines =)

You know you drive an E30 when you notice the familiar headlights in on coming traffic.

i do this all the time and the girlfriend gets so annoyed how many times i say "look at that e30!" about 10 times a day

You know you drive a e30 when...

-Your up at 8am on a Saturday with nothing planned but going to a friends shop to help, watch, crack jokes with another e30 owner doing a suspension install, hoping you can get your HU installed in the process.

-You spend more on average per month on your e30's than you do your wife.

-You spend more on average per month on your e46 than you do on your kids.

-If you added up all of the costs of maintainence, mods and other crap for your Bimmers you realize you could have a brand new _______ (fill in the blank) that had no issues; but still smile and say, "yeah, but it's not a e30.

[Raxe]

You know you're an E30 owner when you buy a car wanting to do maintenance on it.

[BrooklynMW]

You can open up your own auto parts store just by popping your trunk

[pharow]

When you're broke! All the time! lol
