    I also purchased a 1994 E34 Hartge H5 V8 5 Speed last year...and kept my e30 in case i would have regretted selling it...After driving my E34 for a week i had completely forgotten about my E30 and it is now up for sale...IMO they are both amazing, classic models and completely different!

    yup, and high milage ones get a dead spot on center too, so the steering is even more vague

    biggest problem i think with the E34 is the rolling ball steering. I like the rack and pinion much better.

    I was tempted to give up my e30 for an e34 525i 5-spd but I couldn't possible bring myself to do it. There is no reason for me to get rid of the e30...ever. There's no car payment, insurance is cheap, and it's been relatively cheap to maintain and mod. I'm nearly finished with the car, and am looking for an e39 wagon to daily, so the e30 can be a garage queen and turn into a full fledged project car.

    Enough of my rant though, I do really like the look of the e34 on the Hartge's and the green is a nice color.

    My E34 was almost the rawest of them all plus i modded the suspension to be much stiffer than stock, and it still wasn't the same as driving an E30.

    Umm I kind of made a change..(pls don't hate me)

    Some weeks ago I picked up a sweet '94 E34 525i. Reason being that I wanted to give the M-tech some rest, retire it as a daily.
    Thursday I however decided to sell it.I shall be seeing it around though.
    The past weekend just SUCKED ass though as I started to come out of shock realizing what had taken place.:(

    This song came to mind and sorta stuck in my brain playing over 'n over

    I must return to an E30 in the future.

    Some pics from a shoot today
