The e21 was my first car and I have spent 16 years looking for one just like this. I'll never sell.

Oh yeah power wise your looking at 143lbs tourqe and 140 bhp for the 323 and 110bhp and 123 lbs for a 78 320i. top speed in my 323 as stock is 127mph with the 3 speed auto but my other 323 with the five speed I was able to make the needle come around to 0 again after 140mph. I did just finish spendi...

no i haven't joined e21.net. I didn't know they existed :o: I'm new to these forum things. I used to be a bmw club member back in the early 90's but the attitude was shit so I gave up on groups. You lads seem cool enough so mabye its time for me to try again. E21 jason is right about the costs but t...

Cheers lads I love her too! I'm in the middle of converting it to 2.7 with custom forged pistons 10.5:1 and a triple webber set up from fritzs bitz as well as some other one off goodies

It has 47,000 on the clock and a little belly rust stopping an mot. Otherwise it is anthracite grey and in good nick! The asking price is 250...

Howdy folks! I was trolling through the local spares yard and found an E reg e30 320is. That in itself isn't strange however, this is a left hooker with dog leg 5speed, lsd, factory recarros, and some very interesting bbs wheels. The yard boss tells me it is an italian M3. This means it is a 2.0 ver...
