BMW E30 - left hand drive with dog-leg first gear.
Renault Spider - sequential shift and bizarre dash display.
Renault Clio V6 - fully stripped out and sitting on the floor.
By the time the BMW E30 was his, Chris had become attached to it, despite 90k on the clock, a rough interior and a few "dents and dings." However, it was bone stock and a great canvas for a young man's imagination.
It was the successor to the BMW E30 and was eventually replaced by the BMW E46 in 1998.
They are cars like the first-generation Mazda Miata, the original VW GTI, and the BMW E30 M3. They are cars that read the road surface to your fingertips with all the subtlety of a megaphone, that demand all of your attention all of the time.
The best I ever owned was an old BMW E30 323i. As far as I know the exhaust was fairly stock. So are there any combinations of diameter or length that can improve the sound. eg my standard Mazda 626 V6 sounds like crap.
mind you my BMW E30 318i had very cheap plastics... and ugly door trim. The Alfa is just a fantastic car. Servicing is expensive and IT IS ESSENTIAL TO SERVICE THIS TYPE OF CAR BY AN ALFA SPECIALIST.
