I have always wanted a really nice e30. I would probably want to get a super clean e30 318is, 325ix or 325is. Although I will probably just get such a car in addition to the ti. If I did get rid of the ti and buy a new primary driver -- I might also look into a new or used 330i or possibly a used Lexus IS300 or the new IS350. | | | | | 08-14-2006, 04:08 PM | #33 | | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2005 Location: Virginia Posts: 247 |
I am already looking at 1999 E36 M3s, probably get one in the next year.
An 8 series wouldn't be bad either...but only in black. __________________ Silver 98 318ti Standard trans, Sport Package: 16" Stock Wheels, Foglamps, Sunroof, Heated Leather Seats, Bilstein performance shocks, OEM Sach's clutch kit, Dunlop SP Sport A2 225/50/16 tires, Alpine CDA 7894, Dual Rockford Fosgate 12" subs, Rockford Fosgate Amp, Leather Armrest, Replaced M44 engine with only 40k on it!

The french cars of the 80s are a far cry from the current cars they produce... I'd love to have a Clio V6 hot hatch for example, little beastie that it is! Even the Peugeot 207 would do well... Too bad the whole french auto industry has such a bad rep here in the US. It'd be nice to see some variety on the road  Quote: Originally Posted by SDKmann Why would you want french crap?

The only french car I would ever consider driving is the renault clio. | __________________ www.bmwtuner.net - come say hi!

The fact they are over-produced and under-engineered on the non-Ms IMO. But they are better than the LUX-O-Boxes that the e46 tend to be. | | | | | 08-15-2006, 09:41 PM | #41 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2006 Location: Southern California Posts: 208 |

i will also be in the market for a 1 series in a year - 2.
im aiming at a 130, but would deffinately get a 120 or 118.
I imagine they would handle just like the ti, | | | | | 08-16-2006, 12:20 AM | #43 | | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2005 Location: Quad Cities, Iowa Posts: 2,110 |

That ones perfect because it has tons of potential, great looks, and if its a quattro its also pretty practical. Wouldnt mind a Boxter but the only time I would drive it would be on a sunny and dry day, so I would have to get a second car to go with that. And if they sell the SMART roadster or some variation of it with a manual tranny I will be all over it. __________________

Yeah I saw a fortwo from ontario a couple weeks ago when I was in wisconsin. I dont care for the fortwo or forfour but that roadsters hot. Kleemans version has pretty good performance too. I also read that smart is considering making it in a manual. __________________
