      Comparing my old Audi S4 B5 to new M3 Competition X-drive,...
      Audi : better steering (servo), much better catapulting torque (whole rev range), engine and exhaust breathing freely, more organic sound (no cat), better power delivery, better stability (quattro). Big fun factor
      M3: faster, feel stronger only after 5000 revs (below is very shy)
      You know what I mean ): , old school wins.
      Thanks for your videos

      The power at high revolutions is expressed in every BMW, that is BMW's recipe.
      For driving pleasure, I don't believe you can compare a BMW with an Audi, much less with a new model BMW.
      While the clean sound of the engine in the new models is not the same as in the old models, and from the European cars, BMW and Mercedes have kept the clean sound for longer, since BMW was the last to join turbo gasoline engines.

      stock replace or Schrick? I didn't notice much out of my S70 engine, but then the E31 weighed sooooooo much. My E34 was similarly so easy and smooth and derivable as well. Mild camber plates, 7 series upper control arm bushings and Bilstein Sports and it was sweet in the mountains. Got better than 24 mpg on the highway in summer with A/C on at 140 kmh

    What I really loved about this car and any car from the 80's I must say, is the clarity and visibility of the cabin.
    Thin windshield pillars, big windows. You can't miss a pedestrian when driving in town, you have almost no blindspot.
    And parking this car in reverse gear is simple a f**k. You just don't need no parking sensors :D

    Excellent video Max! Personally my love for the E30 runs deep, and it's something I've covered in depth on my own channel having had my E30 Touring for several years now. The durability, versatility, reliability and driver focus of this platform is what makes it one of the best BMWs ever in my opinion. The M20 is such a great engine too. Hope to see more of your E30 soon!

    for some reason, this video reappeared in my youtube and i decided to see it again. i realized i made a comment 6 months ago that i have the 4-cylinder 318is. and then in january 2023, i bought the exact same car 325i may 1988 manual with mtech seats like in this video. but my seats are fortunately in good condition. But my car has the original steel wheel 14" with plastic hardcap. a truly original with 185/65/14 tires. LOL
    So, why did i buy this one? because i wanted to try the 6-cylinder after hearing so many good things about it. and true enough the bmw inline-6 is brilliant. It is so smooth and vibration free I can't believe this thing is so good and ahead at that time. Even today this thing is magnificent I am thoroughly enjoying this more and more. it is simply fabulous. A fabulous classic.
    The e30 325i is very rare. and a few have asked me to sell. But I will keep this car.
