I owned an E30 for 18 years. In 2006 I decided to not keep it once I bought my E90. I should have kept it seeing in prices now. But really the E30 sucked until 1987 when BMW put the good cylinderhead on the M20. '89 is the best model (outside an M3 I guess). The '89, which is what I had, has the small euro style bumpers and no airbags and the "is" M20.

The eta E30 was a dog, and the early 318 with the M10 was even a slower dog. The '91 318 with the M42 was okay. I think the attraction is the M3 body styling. The dash controls were fantastic.
