  • This was, without a doubt, some of the most fun I've had behind the wheel of a car. Even in the rain, it was a blast to push from corner to corner and feel the pull of torque from the turbo. The power band is smooth, it sounds amazing, and it's the perfect size. This BMW E30 review was one we've been waiting a long time to film. Hope you guys enjoyed the video! :D

    Ryan's car sounds UNREAL. If I were to head on over to Ryan's garage to film some mods/improvements on his build, would you guys watch that?! :D See you on Thursday with a 620 whp Corvette Z06

    I was 18 years old when I drove my first e30 325i. I had driven a few performance cars at that time but this one really stood out as the most enjoyable for me. Since then it's been more than 20 years and I have driven many more cars since then BUT I always remember ripping around in that black E30. Wonderful drivers car. Simple but enjoyable and effective.

  • @godfatherNYC
    @godfatherNYC 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I remember when these were brand new cars. There was such a HUGE difference between these and the small Japanese cars you could get (mostly.) Such a _planted,_ solid feel, so much _pull,_ beautiful style. Such class. You really nailed it again with your appreciation of this beauty for what it is.

  • @LimaUniformCharlieA
    @LimaUniformCharlieA 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Very clean car, I like it. The gauges are the only thing I do not like, but I guess you have to put them somewhere.
    Anyways, I just wanted to say how well you guys are doing. I'm a subscriber for not too long, I think since the E36 M3 video, but you can clearly see the quality of the content increasing. I mean, the GT3RS video was just nuts. I hope you will soon get the attention you deserve. I lack the words, but in german I would say, dass ihr ein kumpelhaftes Petrolicious seid.
    Keep up the good work and drive safe!

    • @Northern_

      Rota is a brand that makes knock-offs of other popular wheels, therefore "Legit Rota" is an oxymoron.

  • @olderrol1968
    @olderrol1968 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    in my opinion the diesel turbo is a little bit of an overkill for 10 psi. but overall there is nothing greater than a car that's built by the owners and. Love reviews like this keep them coming

    The perfect home built E30? Gotta be close. And whilst we all love a V8 in a small package I really do think it would detract from the essential character of this perfectly formed and balanced small RWD. This and a turbo Miata/MX5 NA would be close to the perfect garage on UK roads.
