Friends encouraged me to get it, i purchased for 2700, only needed a catalytic converter. has performance chip which boosts hp from 170 to 190. ran a 16.4 in quartermile with friend in the car. The car has a limited slip so it can spin donuts if needed and can do burnouts

Pros — Great handeling
Cons — decent hp for 1987 but not as fast as my mustang

An E30 325i, very flexible car, can be a decent performer and also a daliy driver. Not very fast car, but with good handling, bulletproff brakes. Currently the car is very well kept and performing aceptable for its agel. One of the things I love about it is that it's rear wheel drive. Overal I am very happy with it!

Pros — Fun Good Handlig Solid construction
Cons — Age Costs

Love almost everything about the old girl. The upgraded suspension is a bit hard for the chassis. But I need it to go around corners. And I can't put all the power down through the rear (once again, the chassis).

I'll never fully rebuild a toy ever again. The process takes too long to get everything right.

Pros — Very pretty, quick for her age.
Cons — Suspension too hard, hard getting replacement modern parts.

the only thing i didnt like about it was it sucked in the rain. the car is fun to drive i like to go fast too so it was fun to drive. the appearance was ok, i didnt have anything special done to it. it is black with tam interior, sunroof. just when you wanted to have people in it it sucked bc u would have to get out to get them in move the seat and blah blah blah.

Pros — fast
Cons — bad in rain and snow

I bought this 1987 325ic from ans older gentelman who was the original owner.  At 21 years old this car still handles like new.  It has the automatic trany in it so it isn't great off the line.  When  crusing at highway speeds, it still has plenty of power left for passing anything.  It has yokohama YK 420 tires, it feels like you are on rails even accelerating through corners.  First BMW i've ever owned, or even driven.  If they build all their cars as well as they built the 325.  Why drive anything else.

Pros — Handling, just a fun car to drive. And it has the clasic lines of a beamer
Cons — only one, no cup holders

After 6 faithful years as my daily driver, this is now my "track" car. The
car's stock parts have slowly been getting replaced over the years, but I
really haven't changed much.

So far:
- Sport seats from an '88 325is
- 3.73 limited-slip differential from the same '88 325is (stock was an
open diff with the same ratio)
- Eibach springs and Bilstein sport suspension
- 15" lightweight wheels with high performance summer tires

I'm sure there will be a few more in the coming years...

Pros — Superb handling, way more fun to drive than a 21 year old car has a right
to be.
Cons — A little low on horsepower by today's standards.
