    My father owned a four door Datsun (late 70 early 80s model) but I can't remember the model. I learned driving stick from the passenger seat as my father did the pedaling in South Philly, btw, however, I distinctly remember the car being pretty rusty in certain parts and this was the late 80s early 90s. Not sure if that is indicative of that period of Datsun.

            I would say that the datsun 510 compares to the e30. My 510 is what got me into e30's

              510's need some upgrades suspension and brake-wise to be on par with an e30.

              God damn I need an Alfa Romeo in my life

                Ive hung around a lot of alfa guys & they all admit theyre slobs compared to a 510. A 510 with springs will be as fast as a decently modded alfa. Its pretty hard to get an alfa down low since the oil pain sits a good 4 inches under the front lip HAHA.

                  Shame they weren't RWD or it would have been unbeatable

                    Thats true but I've never owned a bone stock 510 so I guess it was a little bias on my part.

                          pretty much this.

                          how the heck did everyone miss the audi gt? they had the quattro version that came with boxed fenders just like the m3.

                          for some reason i can't upload photos from the net today. maybe someone can do a google search and add them to this thread.

                            I think this is fitting for this thread...
