Unbelieveble car. good the way they didnt start with an M3 like every1 else is doing 2 get dig power. nice styling 2, 1 of the few e30s that lokks good after parts from body parts that are not from Bmw r alpina. True about the traction problem though. Even a third of that power can get very interesting in an e30!

This car makes the 345i Turbo look slow (4.5 out of the 7 series)!
Have to admit that 4.5 turbo was QUICK though!
This bad boy is rapid as well!

3.6 or 3.8 with two big turbos! 3.6 is only 340 bhp, 3.8 is more. The car above is running over 1000bhp because of the turbos.

Doh! Not just because of the turbos, takes a little more than that trust me.
