Few German performance cars are quite as hyped these days as the E30 generation BMW 3 Series, but with that hype comes not only the likely chance of prices spiralling upward for mostly nostalgic reasons, as can be seen with the vastly overinflated JDM market, but also the risk of these cars not living up to the hype when it comes to actually owning and driving them...
Naturally then I jumped at the chance to actually try one out, here in a lovely green 1989 shape 320i 4 door Saloon spec, with that smooth 2.0 litre straight 6 M20 engine and 5 speed manual gearbox. So all that remains then is to head out on the road to find out if this more practical, daily driver oriented variant of the E30 lineup can offer an insight into why people love them so much...let's review the BMW 320i and find out!

I think the value lies in the platform as a blank slate, you can do anything with it. cruiser,drift car, street car, swap a k series in it, swap an LS with it, make it look classic, make it looks like a missle,etc. the sky is the limit

The E30 M3 needs to be taken in the proper context. Being the homologation street version of a spectacular racing car on a track it remains the benchmark for a wonderfully fun responsive magnificent driver's car. On the street it rides rough, the engine is harsh and the high narrow power band will have you constantly working the gears to keep it on the boil. Meanwhile the 325i handles and stops just as well, is just as responsive, is basically as fast, has a smooth engine and rides much better.

This is one of the best E30 videos that I've seen in a while. Great info, but even more so, you totally nailed the feeling of driving one of these cars. When I drive my E30, it just feels right. I always say it feels like it fits me like a glove. I've driven countless cars from the 1920s to brand new and the E30 just feels like it's one of the best cars, ever built in comparison to all of them. It's not better per SE, but it just feels like it is, which is good enough for me.

I had exactly the BMW 320i , 6 cylinders, 1989. It was such a nice, perfect car.

What’s the engine sound like ? Seems pretty quiet in this video.

The thing at least with the 320i is that with the weird powerband for street it kinda suffers on the lower end, so you push the pedal more to compensate and the mpg in average is worse than a 323 or 325 surprisingly. Mine does 25 mpg on a good day, though i guess it depends on many other factors due to the age. But it’s a classic car you may not care about mileage as much.
