    It's because they weren't sold here. They're cool for the same reason euro bumper trim and smilie headlights are cool, because they weren't available here. Why do you think US bumper trim with the sidemarkers sells like fucking crazy in Europe?

      The guy I bought my RS's from has one as well. I got see it in person and I defintely think they are cool. I always wanted an S4 Avant, why not an e30 Touring as well!!

        other than that, its a very boring looking car, but i live in germany and see hooked up tourings every day. next week i start at the BMW dealership here, i will get a pic of one of the other guys theres touring. a dark purple, with alpinas- clean.

              To me Tourings are cool because it goes along with the 'wolf in sheep's clothing' theory, even if it was produced here I'd have one before a 2 or 4dr sedan. Along with this, it's that much more practical.

                I see what your saying, but you can argue that euro trim and ellips are superior in more ways that just being only sold in Europe.

                  i like them because they have all the advantages of an e30; pretty quick for a stock car, handle well, etc, but they have a ton of room

                  im very happy with mine, and dont see myself selling it. ever.

                        Did that touring come from Toronto? I know a lot of them start here (our 15 year rule allows them in), and I've seen that exact colour/wheel combo around the corner from my house.

                              Not you, lol. I knew your car was from here, I inspected every inch of it at Bimmercruise '04 (I'm the E30 judge). It's frickin' mint, but you may already know that.
