I had an e30 325is and absolutely loved the feel of that thing on windy mountain roads. It was poised, heavy-ish but not difficult to move around. After purchasing a Mini Cooper S I had both side by side for ~5 months and it was definitely jarring coming back into the E30 (not just acceleration but things like tightness of steering and shifting) but ultimately once you adjusted for the basic feel of each car the E30 was still massively fun to drive and especially power through corners in.

It' a four cylinder naturally aspired engine with lots of torque. In todays power bands, yes it is slow but not for an '88 in '88. I could chirp my tires from first to second. Where it beats the comp in it's day is in handling. I used to cross the Mingus Mtns between Jerome and Prescott and the go-cart feel of the car killed those curves. American rally cars built in those days killed EU rally cars in the straight away but when you got to S curves, BMW's got the time back. Most fun car I ever owned.

Doug is my all-time favorite car reviewer. He is the only one I watch every single video of. Last year I got “Quirks and Features” tattooed on my buttcheeks. I bought all of his $50 signed photos and won a $100.000 auction on Cars&Bids just to show how much I love Doug and everything he does. If I were gay, I would definitely marry him. Overall, Doug is the best person on this planet, and I live for him. That’s why he gets a solid 6/10.

Acutally BMW turn signal design is very-very bad. When you take a left turn for example, you pull the stalk down. Problem is that the stalk pops back to it’s original position instead staying in the “down” position. No wonder BMW drivers never use it, it’s ridiculous. (Edit: It doesn’t apply pre 2000 models I think)

It’s too bad no other BMW M3 driver has felt the perfect weight of that turn signal stalk

That example is absolutely stunning, how anyone could keep a car with over 200K miles on it in such immaculate condition is beyond me!

Doug, thanks so much for the trip down memory lane. I never got the E30 M3 we all coveted so ferociously. But, of the E30 series I had a 318i, 325e, 325i, 325i Convertible and the freakishly awesome 325ix with Ferguson Four Wheel Drive. I remember the check panel, the service indicator, the vacuum gauge for MPG...all of it. You missed the antenna at the front of the roof, the locking BBS center caps and the fact that the entire truck lid was unique. Of course so, back then was a 16-valve 4-cylinder. But, after putting my service manager's kids through various Ivy League schools and Berklee College of Music, I stopped driving BMW's and stayed with SVX, Spec. B and a few WRX...and my Subaru service manager put his kids through college himself. Best Regards.

„I love turning on the turn signals“ is something no one else ever said in a BMW

Missed some of the most amazing quirks, Doug! The rear window and C-pillar were moved back and given a shallower angle than the base 3-Series in order to reduce rear aero lift at speed. In your video, you can see the extra row of “mouse fur” parcel shelf behind the rear speakers that fills the gap to the base of the repositioned window. And the trunk lid (made of glass-reinforced plastic) was raised by about 2 inches to create smoother airflow and to improve high-speed stability. Very noticeable on the side views of the car. Also, the windshield was glued in place instead of being framed with the period-standard raised rubber gasket and metal trim. All of which helped reduce the M3’s drag coefficient to 0.33 from the base 3-Series’ 0.38.

It still feels great after 30 years because the lever was rarely used.

Doug left out some neat stuff! The top right light is missing from the check panel; it was "Engine Oil". Its missing because its function was incorporated into the oil temperature gauge on the bottom portion of the tachometer. On normal e30, that gauge was an instant economy gauge That little flashlight was pretty neat in that you didn't have to worry about batteries being dead, because it had a rechargeable battery and its receptacle in the glove box had charging posts Those chunky rear speakers are that way because this example was equipped with the premium sound option, which featured larger, 2- way speakers (the angled bit is the tweeter) By putting them in pods like that, BMW didn't have to modify the hole already cut for speakers. The base option sat pretty flush, but used dinky 4" speakers

I got to ride in one of these around an autocross track in probably 07 or 08, really only spent two minutes in the thing and it’s been one of my all time favorites since. Such an amazing feeling car.

I bought an 88, same color, for my 17 year old son as a first car. It was cheap ($4k) but after getting it up to snuff, and trying to teach him how to drive it with that touchy clutch, I sold it and got him a 86 E30 4dr (also stick since kids need to know how to drive a stick). He was pretty upset about the whole deal but he got over it (has an E46 M3 now). It took a while for me to get over it after I saw what they're selling for now. I sold his for $7500 and it was a nice example. My only negative was I thought 1st gear was way too short.

*Doug the type of guy to turn on the turn signal to feel the lever.*

I bought this same 1988 red M3 back in 1988, when I lived in San Diego.I test drove 30 cars that year, and I knew immediately, after driving the M3, it was the one I would be driving home.I spent many fun filled hours carving up curvy roads; as this car had fantastic handling and grip. I have owned 37 cars in my life, and this is my second favorite behind the Porsche Cayman S.Both cars gave me a great sense of freedom and joy.

I had a 325i E30 and I loved the check control feature too! But I recall the operation of it a little different: when the "check" light between the gauges came on flashing, you had to look at the panel at the mirror to see what part was not working correctly. Then you confirm by pressing the check button and the flashing "check" goes out. When you press that button, all the light should come on to indicate that check control itself is working correctly.

Absolutely love the simple clean interiors.

On my old e30 320i it was a fun game to see how many lights you could get to stay on. I thought I'd win a prize if I got all of them lit up. I did, the gearbox fell apart, along with the water pump...

“...and feeling that glorious turn signal lever...”. This quote is when you know your watching a Doug review

Thanks for the great review and a drive down memory lane for me. A third hand 88 M3 was my first car! I had $14K to spend on a car and it was either a brand new Civic (as my older and wiser friends recommended) or "that white M3 with 105K miles on it". It was a no-brainer :-) * Two things you did not mention but I think are noteworthy for this car are the battery sitting in the right side of the trunk and the entire trunk lid being made of fiberglass, supposedly for perfect weight distribution.

On the e30 RHD model, the hood latch is still located on the left side of the car

Hey Doug I love your videos and I enjoy them a ton, but if there was one thing you could add to the videos is the start up and a rev of some of more loud or exciting cars that sound nice🤙🏻

Sorry if this was covered, but the "CHECK" will illuminate each time you turn the key on as you described. This is because you alone cannot easily check the brake lights for operation. So when you step on the brake, if all the brake lights illuminate, the "Brake Light on the above "Check panel" will go out.

Brand new, unwanted, horizon filling vehicles 😲 goes to show just how little the manufacturing cost are. Especially if they can all make huge profits and then send a substantial percentage of vehilcles off for "recycling".. where is the logic in that?

I had an e28 with a lot of the same features, a couple things: the “Check” light flashes because the brake lights are one of the things it checks, and it can’t do that until you put your foot on the brake. If a check light stays on, that light will flash in the dash until you push the check button in the ceiling. Also, in the little button pod in the dash, the numbers can be used to set an immobilizer code that will actually set an alarm off if you try and start it too many times without entering the code, kinda cool!

I still remember when my dad came home with with a 1988 BMW 325!!! I was blown away!!! It was white on white was one of the most Beautiful cars I have ever seen at that time, it was dark by the time he came home with it & he took me for a drive to Blockbuster!! ( Lol ) & I couldn’t believe everything lit up in red especially the small computer gage!!!

The flashing check light in the dash is a reminder notification to the driver to push the check button on the check panel prior to driving the vehicle, like a preflight cockpit systems check.

Another Amazing review !!! Absolutely love your Doug things. I’m the exact same way. Love the details. You know all the little things. Avid viewer!!

To me, the E30 is the greatest car design of all time. And the history to it, especially that of how the touring model came about is about the sickest story in car engineering there is. This M3 is such a beauty. In Germany, there is just no way you can possibly still get your hand on one of those, anymore. Every single orihinal one is owned by a true enthusiast, by now.

I went with my dad on a business trip to London in 1990 and got to ride in a NEW E30 M3! We were picked up at Heathrow and driven around in a co-worker’s Euro spec Red/Grey 1990 M3. A phenomenal experience and probably a big part of my car obsession today! I’ve been waiting to see Doug review one for years. One difference I see: the Euro spec had a manual sun roof crank handle, not electronic buttons! Great job Doug!

"the biggest mistake BMW is making as a company, aside from the X4" ..... *the X1, X2, new 2 series, 4 series grill, X6, 7 series grill, piped in engine noise, and every grand 'coupe' has entered the chat* also the R18 is bloated but we'll save BMW Motorrad for another day.

I’m not a BMW guy, but I would definitely love to own this BMW

I had the less glamorous e30 320i which had no power steering. The six cylinder engine was sublime, and the previous owner had installed M-Technik suspension so it went round corners like it was on rails. Had to scrap it off though due to financially non-viable body rot underneath.

Awesome cars! PS. missed a cool feature on the onboard computer. (CODE), pass code enabled immobilizer. Once enabled need pass code to start car. We in SA never received the M3, BMW SA instead made their own version called the 333i, Basically e30 2 door with 3.3/3.5 M30 Engines .

The buttons with the numbers 1, 10,100,1000 were used to set the code with the button on that screen. When you had the code set, then the car needed the code to start up otherwise the engine would only crank continuously, but it wouldn't start up. This "code" button should have been explained in the video Doug, and you did not do that also at the e34 m5 video, which has the same button, with the same function. It's a shame you didn't mention because it's a cool feature that 99% of the cars nowadays still don't have. Anyway, nice video!

Great review Doug! - really love this car too!.... but all the features of this e30 M3 were available more than 20 years earlier on an Alfa Romeo Giulia. I have to believe that Claus Luthe who designed it was a genuine Alfa fan and respectful of Giorgetto Giugiaro, who designed the 105 Bertone. Forward hinge hood, sliding front seats, even the hood pull latch are Alfa. I am a BMW driver, have been for 2 decades, but I also have a '73 Alfa 2000 gtv, and understand why even the great BMW had to follow them, as drivers cars... pre-fiat Alfas, there is nothing like them.

That damn green bar oil maintenance light was a dealer scam. You had to pay the dealer to reset it if you changed your own oil. If not you got to bask in a warm red glow...which remained on while driving. The dealer wanted $50 for a ten second reset. I had a dozen of the 3-series in the late 80s and 90s so bought the tool myself and saved a ton. Lots of memories in this video, love these cars, thanks Doug.
