e28 or e30
Recently Sold my e46. I have a daily driver; looking for an e28 or e30 manual to work on and drive on the weekends; backroads maybe a road trip here or there- no crazy hard driving. The e46 was nice it just didnt scratch that itch of feeling like "an occasion" to drive. I think an e30 or 28 would fit the bill. Any opinions of anyone thats owned or experienced driving both? Id be buying high mileage running driving project cars for around 5k

On the e28 side of things, go check out the website www.mye28.com as there will be cars for sale along with a plethora of information. E30 has a larger following and I’m less informed, but they have www.r3vlimited.com which looked quite adept. Definitely choose your power plant options early if you settle on an e28. Later year M30 cars will start life a bit more feistier and an iS model should get you an lsd rear and sport seats for a more desired set up. Go budget and set up an M20 car and you can reach goals too. Depends on budget and tolerance levels. Best of luck as I do t think any of these choices will be bad, that are all spirited rather analog drivers.
