E30’s are slow but you are driving the worse example to review. A 318i sedan with a 4 cylinder engine slammed with bags and heavy aftermarket wheels. Most likely the car has a open diff. By the way the “facelift” started in 1988 and they initially designed the e30 being as a sedan not a coupe. I love your channel but please don’t spread wrong information to people who don’t know. Oh yeah e30’s were mass produced but they are not plentiful at junkyards as you say. It is a 30 year old car.
@@khathmonykeo9370 they’re so rare at a junkyard and If you do find one all the good parts are missing. They were completely misleading all the viewers 🤦🏽♂️
Also the reason "dirty E30" became a term is because they were used in rally cars, and that's what they called them. 318 and the 325i were totally different beasts. The 325i although not fast, was a a lot more peppy then the 318/325e and made the car lot more fun especially on curvy roads where the car excels over being a fast car, it's a momentum car.
m42 318s (like this one) have a lot to give. the "318s are boring" sentiment generally comes from m10 experience. m42 318i/s e30s aren't really that far off the performance of a 325, and the change in weight placement definitely helps the balance of the front end.
Yeahh you got squeaky brakes, front panel screen and radio not working, car is slow, sounds like it would take off right now, aero jamming, but it looks SO GOOD
Found my E30 back in April of this year. After seven years of looking, I found the one and haven't looked back since. If you are reading this right now and are actively looking for "the one," stay patient. It's well worth the wait. (with how much alex talks about it being slow, get the 325i which has a little kick to it)
I know the 318i has it's fans and they love the weight savings, but the M20B25 is a great little sewing machine. Good low end, with the right LSD, and it loves to rev. Makes nice sounds too!
All this love to the E30s. E34 deserve the same attention, they're bigger and much more comfortable. I've owned mine for over 4 years now and have taken it on many long trips.
@@padrescout I surely have put thousands into it, rebuilding and stroking the engine, getting leather sports seats and retrofitting various extras, but all in all it was well worth it. The car's been super reliable so far.
That "thing" that doesnt work is an on board computer (obc) the early ones didnt do much but the later model cars could tell you: miles left in tank, average speed, the time, the tempature, it has a stopwatch for lap times, you can enter a distance and it will calculate how long untill you get there, it is even able to be programed with a code as an immobilizer for the ignition
My car will sound great! Cammed and tuned Cadillac 4.6 northstar from northstar performance. Glass packs and 400hp in a 17ft 4 door sedan on coilovers!
I'm maybe late here, but i'm planning to buy an e30 as my first car. Does an e30 is a good first car? Is there something i have to know before owning one?
First off those sandals are a crime. Second the 325i is actually good on power. Why you talking about the 318i as the default E30. And yours look really good
I'm uh not lying. I've came back to this vid a few times now. I love this car. In fact so much I'm wanting to buy one. I've got it all cleared with the wife. Got a couple things to finish up on my Camaro then saving for one of these. Not to be a total idiot but like on car guru as long as I'm looking at the 1987 3 series it's this car right?
Buy one now. They are being destroyed very fast now. 5 years from now, good ones will be gone. Get one, do a 24v swap and keep it. Z3 alu block m52 and a OBD2 swap will give you 200hp and 200ftlbs of sweet, sweet torques. Double the HP, same weight..

Agree! It is the most perfect car unless it is compared to the (2dr) e30 318is. The score for that is 110/10!
HE USED A TURN SIGNAL 😮
Quailty lol

My boy Alex rocking the slay the romans 12s😍

The Jesus Sandles do be fire
No man should wear those….gross

I’m lucky to have a facelift 5sp 325is - it’s all stock. It’s slow and the interior is creaky- but that straight six is silky smooth
All Alex needs now is socks to go with those sandals, and then we can officially call him the Linus of the fitment world.
Just glad to hear that FITMENT INDUSTRIES still has it!

Wow 4 whole years? That's a while.
... So how many tens of thousands of dollars have you put into it so far?

I can't believe you confidently went on camera with sandals.
😂😂😂😂😂
he a 🐐
Agreed, soy boy, gross
This video is the perfect representation of my projects in School.
The thing never worked until I had to present the end results :)

i love how 5 minutes after i start looking at e30's this shows up in my box. 👌😆😆😆😆
You guys should do a video about racing harnesses! For track/auto/daily use and what not. An underrated topic which needs more light!
I know you aren’t talking smack about the slowest E30 made in my daughters sandles
Hi, where can you find the rear bumper cover? Please help if you know.
Alex: I don’t like the brakes.
Also Alex: I like it in every way, shape, and form.
🤔😅
One suggestion for future episodes....Have subscribers nearby submit their rides for reviews to get more varieties of cars for video content.
That Beamer is dope!
I am working on a 1988 e28 528e and it's loud as hell stock. I am installing sound dampening panels throughout to help the sound.
Alex looking like David Bowie with the fitment industry's star shining on his face 😂
Front lights are mint
About time more E30 content need more. #e30Mafia
Birkenstock Arizona model....nice fitment
Mistake no1 is ripping the interior out, no.2 is buying a 4 cylinder,.no.3 is that exhaust.
Well, there is also the 316i and the 324td, pretty sure those would have sold badly if they were offered in the US
That intro transition is so sick
You need a Inline 6 for that to have decent speed
Do you guys do work on cars? i'd love to get mine setup like this.
Man I don't care if it's slow.. it looks so beautiful
I love BMW & Mercedes Benz 90 models.
Here's me cruzing in a Mercedes Benz E350 07.
My ❤ disappeared 😶.
@@AFLI8D happens when you edit a comment chief
What steering wheel is that it looks sick
Alex do be my favorite presenter tho
Looks solid, what wheels are on this car, and tyres, steering wheel? Set up etc want the same drive as this..
the sandals are for weight reduction instead of a whole shoe?
Those wheels are gorgeous
Alex should never have his toes out while talking about an e30.
Alex should just never have his toes out...
Staaahhhhpppppp 😂😂😂😂😂😂

People roasting alex for the Glizzy Gladiator 7s but they dont know that theyre actually Birkenstocks
Them Birks hard🔥 but the Glizzy 7 comment's have me rollin everytime😂😂😂😂
"[...]oval headlights". Fool, are you blind? Them are 2 perfect circles on each side
This was a great video just to show everyone how your own build will always be better then everyone else’s despite the obvious.
That car is SIIIIIICK!
First off those sandals are a crime. Second the 325i is actually good on power. Why you talking about the 318i as the default E30. And yours look really good
Are they really that slow?
You know, this almost makes me want to keep my '91 535i. But I'm not gonna
In my e30 when the clock screen is messing up I just flick it and it comes back in
The 325is is better love that straight 6 sound I learned how to drive in my mom's 88 (auto)
u guys think it’s fine for my first car ?
hy what type of seats and is it comfort
I just remembered Bill Burr about sandals... Funny sh*t! Btw, great car! :)
Linus out here wildin wearing sandals with no socks
When do your wheels go on sale. Tryna get myself some cosmis racing mrii for Christmas
He has said in the past that end of the year they have their biggest sale bc getting rid of old inventory, and also during tax season.
I need a link for those door cards
I want to remind you that there is a 316i model which has a 1.6 l 102 cv model 😌😌 (the one I have, coupe obv)
When he said you can just buy an M version. He said it so casually that it hurt (':
❤️😂

Super Chuck yes
since you made a review of E30 do one with Mercedes W201 190E that would be great
Plentiful in junkyards..? Maybe in Germany or England. They're hard to find in California junkyards..
What’s that steering wheel?
1st off i gave this a thumbs up. With that out of the way i think the rims are too flashy! I'd love to see those in matter black!🙃
Why do I wanna buy one of these and 2JZ swap it
Sandle game strong
❌🧢
Slow is relative, get a 325is have more fun in low end power bands.
Is this m40 or m42?
So you want a lexus gs series? Please make it happen guys!

It is real E30. Something should broken. 😂😂😂❤❤❤love e30❤❤❤bimmer
Clean e30 Forsure. But Alex what’s up with those Puerto Rican grandpa sandals ?
Why Blinkers Are Flashing Fast__?🤔😄
Cause a bulb is probably out elsewhere.
E30 it is handsome bad boy on street always. ❤❤❤
I'm assuming he walked off after the opening monologue and collapsed immediately because he didn't take a single breath for 25secs
Damn you got the wrong e30 go with the 325is 2door
Mines an 84 and I fu ken love it
Noti gang 🤟
Im starting to think alex doesnt like loud cars.
Have you heard JT's whip yet? 😅😂
Dude wearing the sandals Jesus got killed in
It’s a big fart can but it’s looks are as dope as the Lethal Weapon speed chase with the Bmw!
I’m more worried about Alex’s shoe game 😬
Right?!?!?!
Trust me Alex has some shoe game, He has his own sauce 🔥😂
Loud 😂, that sound like a little mice vs my e30 with 2.9 stroker motor.
... didn’t mention engine configuration once.
I'm putting 3dsm 0.05's on my e30
Damnit I'm 5 minutes late
Nice 👌
I still want one(for a reasonable price smh) or one of the Imported wagons
Bro put the old wheels back on
SO YOU WANT A VOLVO C30!!!!!
Not as good of a driving experience as a Miata or 350z?! Are you high? Y’all must have ruined the suspension on that thing.
