The one that's an old japanese economy car

e30 is better learner car and easier to work on
e36 m3 is more comfortable, faster, less reliable

>59,000
I hope that's a mistake

yea it should be 5900, he just texted me 5300. Thinking I'll get it for 4500. Sucks that the M3 fag is firm but then again it is a much cleaner car
good idea

Haha why do you have to lie to get your point across nigger?
The E36 models are all ten years newer than E30s and much easier to work on. And same with reliability. Have fun with your rust

The 318i has an M10 in it. That'll make 75 horsepower on a cold day.

>$59,000
What in living fuck.

american facelifts have an m42 and it's a typo

Also remember, E30s have no airbags, no traction control, no ABS (some of them do but it's not common since it was an option).

8th gen Civic is 12 years old now. No reason to recommend a 6th gen Civic to kids now. Let them rest.

Go for the E36 if you've got the money, and this is coming from a guy who owns 2 E30s. You're comparing a bottom of the range E30 that's going to need a bit of work to go fast to a top of the range E36 that's decently quick stock, even with the north American motor. Also the E30 looks like it's been molested and wheel bearings are a pain in the ass to replace.

The only thing you're right about is the rust, and even then facelift E30s don't really rust compared to early models. E30s are very solid and easy to work on cars compared to E36s - no Vanos, no nightmare electricals, simple and spacious engine bays, and the interiors don't fall apart. Legit the only problems are old car problems like rust and bolts refusing to come undone or snapping, and even then E36s are starting to run into the same sort of problems.
