1986 VW GTI -My lesson in not buying a engine swapped car
1991 BMW 318i Alpinweiss2 -The one I still have
1991 BMW 318i Brilliantrot - The first one I sold
1991 BMW 318i Sterlingsilber - The second one I sold

Very little could get me to ever take that GTI back despite it being faster and more economical than my faux efficient/crypto sporty M42s.

Edit: Update 3 years later!

1991 BMW 318i Alpinweiss2 - plan was to have a clone of the other 318i, sold it to a friend
1986 BMW 325es Alpineweiss1 - was to be the new race shell, sold after sitting for a year
1989 BMW 325i Bronzitbeige - just for flipping, ran great, was tempted to keep it, still sold
1984 BMW 528i/Hartge H5S - actual Hartge, kept it for one really fun year then sold it, probably will regret later
1991 BMW 318is Brilliantrot - the start of my track car
1976 BMW 2002 Veronarot - rusty, but already modded, probably a keeper
1989 BMW 318i Touring Lachsilber - first import, led to a string of others
1989 BMW 320i Touring Lazurblau - 2.0 power
1988 BMW 324td Touring Brilliantrot - diesel, yet to arrive as of this edit

Lets update this:

23:
1986 VW GTI- Sold to a girl who ran it into a ditch. -_-. Want to get another one some day.
1996 Mercury Sable- Gross Mobile, Literally the Worst Car I have ever driven. Given Away.
1993 Mercury Capri- Decent Fun Convertible, Great MPG, Had a backseat for more girls in the car. Just FWD sucks. Currently sitting in my garage with a no start that no one can figure out.
1977 MGB- Christmas Gift when I turned 16. Dad pulled it out of a barn, where it had sat for 10 years because someone couldn't figure out how to wire up a fuel pump.
1998 328i: Good Reliable DD. Bought in 08 for 3800 bucks with 130k on the clock. Replaced clutch, cooling system, and shocks. Now needs a rear wheel bearing(BANE OF MY EXISTENCE)
1987 325is: Piece of shit E30 that I spent too much money on because I was stupid, and didn't wait. Had a dale earnhardt interor, a ripped apart front valance, and probably 350k miles on it. Traded it for e36 m3+cash.
1998 M3: Bought this from a drug dealer who was moving away, and needed cash quickly. (yes I search the car for drugs and found nothing) Had about 10k worth of mods done to it before I picked it up with 90k miles on the clock. Handles like its on fuckin' rails.
1980 TR8: Inherited from my dad because he didnt want to work on it. Has been sitting for about 18 years ago. Build thread is up on r3v.
1995 M3: Nice Car, had a couple of problems, sold it to Slammine28guy last summer.
1989 325i: Bronzit, lady ran it into a fence, bought for 700 bucks, put on new door and fender, drove it for a summer, autocrossed it a couple of times, sold it for 2k 2 weeks ago.
2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX MR: I love the way this thing drives, it just needs a stiffer set of springs to eliminate body roll.
1989 325: Red, Plastic bumper, Needs a PS pump, For Sale Currently. Was going to go through this thing but I just dont have the time.
1996 Miata M-Edition: Just bought last week, a ton of fun to drive, but currently on stock suspension and shitty tires. Time for some upgrades.

Trans Am?

1996 Trans AM WS6: I Thought I knew how RWD and 350 lbs of torque worked while taking a corner when I was 16, yeah I was wrong, and put the thing into a traffic control box, and took out a fence. Sold the car as is, and a body shop guy fixed the damage and is driving it now.

Yes I admit it.... they say that the first step to a cure. Oh and none are parked on the grass i'm not a car farmer yet. I really like your vert my 88 is Royal Blue and will be painted this year due to burning from the sun when in Texas.

[Vivek]

BamaE30...so you have like 14 cars and a bunch of bikes?

[Hokie_ZHP]

I'm 20

First car was a 2002 VW Jetta TDI. Ended up putting suspension on it along with larger nozzles and a stg rocket chip tune. Definitely woke the car up!

Next was a 2003 Mini Cooper S JCW 6spd. Had that for 2 years. No mods. Fun enough car as is with the JCW package.

Now I drive a 2003 BMW 330i ZHP 6spd that I love! Bought it last summer.

And now I'm looking to pick up a e30 325is or 318is to have as a side project and DD to keep miles off the ZHP. Have yet to find one though that I like.

Well I'm 23 and I've had:
First car was a 87' Monte Carlo SS, worked hard in chicken houses of south Alabama for a whole summer to get it.

Then while in California my dad traded it for a 98 Pontiac firebird, horrible car v6 and autotragic so no good there.

After driving the firebird thru high school I worked for a few months and found an awesome deal on a 03 gmc Sierra Z71. Loved this truck, ended up putting a lift and 35" tires on it and it was so much fun on the dirt roads of southern Alabama haha!

So after I had enough truck fun I bought a 03 mustang GT! This started my passion for cars. I had every bolt on possible and rebuilt heads and a mild cam, it was awesome til I flipped it.

Then I got a Lil Honda civic. Not much to say about that except it was cheap.

Now I finnaly fell in love with e30's! Bought a 85 325 with a stroker and a then shortly after an 84 318 which will be getting a m20 stroker and turbo! Haha
