I like this but the latest model isn't a real picture of the car.

My first BMW was an E46, so I am a bit biased, but now I have an E30 and I have to say it's almost a tie for me. When the E30 is cleaned up, she looks great! It is crazy how timeless the design is.

Nice, I love the 3 series

It has the M3 badge on the door side molding.

It's stock, not a wannabe M3. Before my string of Mcars my first BMW was a new 318ti with Msport package. It was covered with M badging, suspension, wheels and aerodynamics by M Division.

I can have any one of the above models as my second car, E30 especially.

couldn't have said it better.

Great post, thanks. Wish you had interior shots as well. I think the change inside is just as cool.

Where's the 2002 in the comparo?? It's the original original! Ok, I'm a little biased as I have a 74...but that car saved bmw in the 70s and was/is a driver's car!
