Bmw e30 m3 ...

[dkly007]

Hi Guys,

Just wanted to know your thoughts on the original M3 as a road car. I've read about all the racing and winning the car's done during it's production life, but would like to know what it is like on everyday roads. Does anyone own one (currently or in the past)?

If any of you would be able to answer my questions below I would appreciate it greatly.

Questions:
What is it like to live with?
Do you drive it daily?
Have you had any problems?
Has any work been needed on the car?
Have you kept it in it's original state or have you mod'd/restored?
How plentiful are parts if they need replacing?

There's one on the market that I have a keen interest in. After having a few drives of my mate's E30 318is I've been quite astonished at how well they eat up the kilometres of every trip I've been in it.

Also is there anything I should look out for when buying an owned E30 M3?

I'd post another link to another forum with a very nice E30 M3 member, a long with other E30 owners - but I'd get banned if i did.

But in short:
It's an amazing car.
Not as reliable since it has a racing motor.
If you are in the US, expect to pay at least $15,000 USD for one in decent condition.
