    Pass.

    You WILL have to fix a BHG if you buy this car. And it's heavy. Get a 240 or a Civic or something.

    Here's my old '89t...hence the username
    She made 340whp and I still enjoyed driving my '92 Civic 1.5l more.

      Well if you got a Supra lover telling you not to buy one, you probably shouldn't buy one. Go with the 190E Will.

        I used to really want an '88 supra until I read about how underpowered and heavy they were. I still think they have a cool look about them. The same for rx7's and nissans from that era. I also LOVE the z32.

        Why don't you consider a well maintained e36? The door panel problems they have are an easy fix. Why grandpa bought a pos 325i and it cleaned up very nice. Quiet ride, sure footed handling, rwd, decent power. A 318ti is a car I'm looking to get when I can afford it.

                There were no six cylinder ti's sold in the US. They only brought over the 318ti I believe. But that is what I am looking for, since it is half an E30 anyway.

                  yea, you want a 924S like you want the CLAP. run away really fast from anything other than a 968 if you want to get into a front engined NA Porsche

                    i've seen a 330ti before? hm.

                    a 318ti would be nice, maybe a mazda 3 hatch, or a focus zx3?

                        Get it. Old school toyotas are cooler than old school BMWs.

                          If you like older toyotas buy an early nineties alltrac celica, comes with a turbo and ~220hp stock with all wheel drive.

                            That looks like a CSX with the TII Turbo Dodge engine. Nothing that OP wants (Cheap, reliable, fast) but neat none the less.
