Hello Fammer:
I don't know if I can get to drive a e30 325is though... but as I can tell you.... we (eva's brother and me) sort of REALLY test drove that 316ti hard at the corner and also tried out its acceleration too!!! Remember last Friday/ Saturday night, it was puring and the floor was VERY wet (with Pirelli P7000 tyres, they all became a bit sticky after we came back from the "road testing")... we drove the car out, redlined it and wheel spun it (either with or without ASC on)! we even ABSed the car too to explore its stopping power.... should I call we "trash" the car??? this term might be more appropriate!! This car can really can take all of these things! That's why I said this car is quite nice on handling!!!
The only downside of this car will be the power of course (and might be the front end look too), but by having a very smooth engine idling characteristic sort of compromise this engine downside in my point of view! I wouldn't want to race a V8 car or any m power car with this baby though! I will choose a really nice day, drive smoothly in this car and really enjoy its handling and quite driving pleasure!
Just my thought on this car!!! and a 2.5L will just be an icing on the cake!!! You got to love it!!!
cheers,
rich
