E30's always make the first page of articles like that. Best driver's car ever.

yeah, becuse it came out in 1982, same year as the e30 debut. You can also see the pic of Jilles Villeneuve in his Ferrari F1 car (he died in 1982)

Haha, I walked in the door after school and picked up that magazine. My friend was getting something out of the fridge and I said "Hey!! There's an e30 in Autoweek!!" He couldn't understand what was so cool about that, and I think all of the "euro bumper" stuff, etc went way over his head. Of course, we were in the M42 on the way home, and I was trying to explain to him why it was faster than his '92 Camry V6 ;).

[rThor432]

Is it faster?

[vlad]

Is it faster?

I am pretty sure it can blow the camry in turns and it's a lot more fun to drive ;)

[scabzzzz]

I wonder if Autoweek would part with the euro bumpers?


tee heet

Yeah, I was 19 and was already an installer.

We have kids on here younger than my kids

Another reason 1982 was a good year was because I was born that year. ;)
