Great Looks, Great Ride, Good Value — This car has the get up and go like Ive never seen before. It handles great, gets wonderful gas mileage, and is easy to drive! It feels strong and powerful without being a beast. It purrs and looks hot doing it! Primary Use: Commuting to work Pros: really quiet and powerful Cons: no cup holders for my latte |

I Love The Car Overall And Is Definitely The Ultimate Driving Machine — I absolutely love my car. I just bought a 1987 BMW 325i and there are so many gadgets on the car that I still haven't figured them all out. It was no doubt top of the line in '87 when it was made as it has things on it that a lot of cars made today don't have on them. It runs beautifully and very smooth. Despite the size of the car it has an excellent solid ride and lots of pep. The only thing I would change about my car is that it is automatic and I would love to have the exact same car with a manual transmission. Any ideas on how to switch my transmission to a stick shift without it costing an arm and a leg? Primary Use: Family transportation Pros: Power everything including moon roof Cons: automatic transmission |

Wonderful Old School Euro Racer! — Amazing car! I love old school euro sportscars and this is definitely one of a kind! Only dislike is the amount of money it takes from me because there is so much potential that you can't ever stop spending money on it! Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) Pros: Very fun! Feel the road, like a big go-kart! Cons: nothing, unless you can buy an E30 M3 |

Perfect. ;) — Lots of modification potential, excellent handling and a fair ride even with aftermarket shocks and springs. I couldn't comment on actual price of ownership, as I've done way too much more than a normal person would probably want to or be able to justify. Tons of fun on the street, and a good start for the track. As far as how far you can go with the performance...the only real limitation I'm aware of are the fenders--you can only fit so much tire before major rework or fender flares are necessary. The suspension is antiquated by adequate, as is the M20 powerplant. As always, tons cheaper to buy parts and do the work yourself versus having a shop do it. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) Pros: Reserved only for those looking for driving feel and performance at a premium, while still having enough room and comfort to be daily driven. Cons: It's expensive to have worked on. Do it yourself! |

Better Than A Sentra. — It's a BMW 325is, it's green, it has a roll cage, and fire system. Yeah, it's pretty awesome. It's cheap and turns pretty good. Not much to dislike about it and it's better than a Sentra. Yes, it's fun to drive and no it doesn't get good gas mileage. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) Pros: It's not a Sentra. Cons: It crashed. |

A Car With A Little Luxury And Upgradeable If You Are A Bmw Enthusiast — It gets decent average fuel economy for a RWD car. For half city and half highway driving, it gets about 23-24 Miles Per Gallon. The car will take a turn with some body leans. Makes great power for a small straight 6 cylinder engine. I would avoid driving it in the snow, unless equipped with tire chain cables and I am not sure about adding sand to the trunk, if the rear axles and suspension can handle it. My least favorite is the high trunk liftover and small rear door openings. Just don't plan on carrying much bulky items. I guess thank god I do not drive the car anymore, since I have a bad habit of hitting the front spoiler when parking. The trip computer would have a tendency to drain the battery if not driven often enough and it was a $1,000 to replace. When the inspection/oil change light/temperature gauge did not operate correctly, it was fixed by replacing the circuit board inside the instrument cluster. The easiest maintenance to do are the oil changes and changing the spark plugs. However the spark plug wires were never changed, very very expensive and are not kept in stock. The most pain in the neck things to do are changing drive belts. In order to reset oil change and/or inspection light you either have to go to a BMW dealer or buy an expensive reset tool, specifically for certain model year BMWs. Primary Use: Family transportation Pros: RWD for some, upgradeable with aftermarket parts Cons: Not great in the snow without tire chain cables. Parts are expensive and some parts of the car are difficult to work on |

Buy One — Awesome handling and not bad acceleration and powerband now that I've chipped it. These cars will never go out of style. Best part is that it's a blast to drive and usually cheap to fix or modify. Definitely worth every penny. Primary Use: Commuting to work Pros: It's awesome Cons: none |
