The BMW e30 is the most awesome car ever made... the 325e is probably not the best model for sports. but when your looking for a clean e30 on a budget its hard to be super picky. Most awesome car ever!

INCREDIBLY RELIABLE!!! DEFINATLY if not the cheapest bmw one of the cheapest and VERY reliable. the ride is smooth. you can drive it across the usa and it will happily and steadily get you there without a hassle, did i mention it is reliable? the only problem is the specialty shops normally are kinda out of the way :( did i mention this car is reliable? :D

Handles like a beast goes fast. There is nothing like being behind the wheel of that car. Its a cheap car to maintain and its gas millage is nice. Its the funnest car you can possibly drive. I will drive that car forever

This car is Amazing. Minus the need for a paint job, this thing is built solid, handles brilliantly, oversteer and understeer. Acceleration is great, braking is predictable, i wouldn't say the best. Only had problems with the cooling system, and that was only the need for new hoses.

The 325e was the baby 6 cyclinder 3 series. 127 hp out of a 2.7 litre 12 valve inline 6. So engine performance wasn't what it could be, although the 177 ft/lbs of torque made up for the lack of power to some extent. What I eventually came to love about this car is that it was rear wheel drive (which I'm now hopelessly addicted to), and the fully independent suspension and light weight made it a very capable handler. The automatic transmission did give up the ghost shortly after I got it, but I converted it to a 5 speed which made it even better. This being my first car however I'm almost required to love it to death despite its many faults, but it did have many redeeming qualities that I still look for in new cars even today.
