Let’s rewind the clock to July 17th, 2012 when this little website was first launched, […]
The E30 generation BMW 3-series was available with a number of different body styles, including a 2-door sedan, a 4-door sedan, a 4-door station wagon, a 2-door convertible, and a 2-door pickup El Camino version…whoa….wait, what? I only wish that this was a BMW built thing, because the world needs more Utes. Find this 1986 BMW […]
BMW built an astonishing 2.5 million E30s in coupe, sedan, estate & convertible trim from 1982 through 1994. The ursprünglicher gangster BMW 3-series was a successful yuppy-mobile when new and has generated a significant cult following as a cheap, fun & reliable sports sedan…but don’t expect the prices of the sporty all-wheel-drive 325ix version with […]
Unless you’ve been hiding under an old BMW for the past few weeks, you probably have read something about the new 2019 BMW 3-series, and you may have caught that it launches without a manual gearbox option!?!? That’s it, I’ve had it — I’m never buying a new BMW again…oh…wait…I’ve never purchased a new BMW and […]
Not too many years ago, you could pick up a clean BMW E30 for reasonable money. It is a completely different market for these cars in 2018.

The E30 generation BMW 3-series sold in large numbers (2.5 million according to the interweb) from 1982 through 1994 in coupe, sedan, estate, & convertible trim…but you don’t often find “showroom condition” examples of the 325 for any price.

Find this 1987 BMW 325i LT1 offered for $3,000 in Woodland, CA via craigslist. Tip from Rock On! Somehow, someone managed to shove all of the necessary smog […]
Words and tip from DT regular Jeff G: So, one day, you’re minding your own business and driving down the highway in your late model supercharged CTS-V or turbo Porsche or whatever, only to be taunted by a primer grey, 30-ish year old Beemer…. 3 series at that. Because he at least took the time to […]
