The greatness of a BMW can be measured on the lean angle of the grill. Of the given choices, e30 is therefore the better one, easily spanked by e21 and 2002 turbo. (and the droolilicious e24 635 but it's a GT)
An E34 touring would be quite nice I think.. but for me, in the 5-series range, it'd have to be an E28 (bottle-tops would have to be replaced with a decent set of BBS X-spokes though):
One of the fellas that I picked an E30 up off of was also selling an E28 M5. Wasn't sure if the £170 I was paying was going to be sufficient for the (almost mint) M5.. so refrained from asking and took the E30 instead
japanese aren't more expensive. It's the fact that they need to be imported is when they get expensive. Otherwise, they are just as much as any other car. So, he is right, and he is also incorrect. So you don't need to worry about that. But yeah, I am against the fact that more ricers do drifting. What drifting needs in some American and European. European would look absoleutly best though. I'll take the new M3 with the V8 for a drift car (like mine off of Pro Street!!!)
