Thank you so much! It’s not that I like one more than the other, they’re very different cars. Yes they are both a 3 series and you can tell that when driving, but still very different cars! For example: E46 has a lot more mechanical grip than the E30, I can go through the cornes way faster, but with an E30 I feel every grip level change through the steering wheel and I feel much more in control of the car than with the E46. I can tell exactly what each wheel is doing and I like that very much. E46 is way more daily drivable, more comfortable, better car all around! But e30 is more pure and precise. I have fun in both cars but it’s different kind of fun. Hope that answers your question 😅
@@bonk1049 First off, the E46’s rear suspension geometry makes it a lot more stable when you're taking corners at higher speeds. With the E30, you're always on the edge of losing the back end in the middle of a corner. It’s fun, but the E46 feels more stable overall. The steering in the E46 is also quicker. thanks to its faster steering rack. Sure, I’m running wider tires on the E46 than on the E30, but they’re balanced for each car’s weight and power, so I don't think it's that of a factor.
@@OGBemfa Yeah the e30 has less refined rear suspension geometry for sure, probably could be fixed with some tinkering, the m3 has the same geometry after all and id imagine that the m3 would need to be more stable. The steering rack is also fixable as bmw steering racks are pretty similar and you can for example swap the rack from the e46 to the e30 with a little modification.
Yoo hahaha its so crazy coming across this channel, cuz u are literally driving on all my local roads. Its crazy i havent seen your car irl tho. Escpecially since i often go to the nice sunset view point, which is close to where u filmed the "appreciation edit" part of the video, (next to the church) hahaha. Wild tho, i hope ill see you on the road one day :D
Beautiful scenery and very little traffic, looks like a petrol-heads dream. Also that handbrake turn caught me off guard, i'd be afraid of snapping the handbrake off trying to do that in mine.
Я из Беларуси . Я управлял этим автомобилем 17 лет . Мне было 18 лет , когда я впервые сел за руль авто и это был е30. Через 10 лет , я управлял им так словно это повозка Апполона, прошло столько лет , но ни один авто не может с ней сравниться . Жалею что продал , и в настоящий момент я планирую приобрести себе для реставрации снова е30.
fun fact - M42 motor koji je u njemu je prvi BMWov motor s dvije bregaste (DOHC) i među rijetkim koji ima karter iz dva dijela koji malo zna zajebavat (em što leži nisko pa ga možeš zakačit a i to što je iz dva dijela pa ako hoćeš jedan dio skinut, moraš oba jer je donji dio zašarafljen za gornji a gornji najčešće pravi probleme). pregledavaj šarafe da ne bi karter poletio.
Znam 😀. Provjerio sam i ponovno zabrtvio cijeli motor prije nego što sam ga stavio u auto. Karter ima nove šarafe i zategnuti su malo jače nego tvornički.
The worst possible. No cat, no resonator, just Schmiedmann headers and then straight into a 318i muffler. Sounds horrible irl, don’t try this at home 🤣.
@@trevorfromengland The original steering wheel that came with this car makes it undrivable for me. It’s way too big, and my knees constantly hit against it. An original sport wheel might be a good option, but they’re becoming extremely expensive.
I love the car, I love the drivers skills
and I like the Slovenian back roads.
You just earned yourself a new subscriber.👌
Thank you my man! Appreciate it a lot!
Perfectly sized, Maximum fun: BMW E30
Such a relaxing drive, i enjoy it very much!
What fantastic camera angle and FOV you have here!
Thank you!
E30 318iS was my very first car back in early 2000's. It was very nice car.
Nice! This was also my first car! Except it had a carburated M10 before I swapped it 😀. It really is a great car!
@@OGBemfa Haha I had E30 316 M10B18 also same time with the iS :D
@@OGBemfa I just got one as my first car 😂
@@bradenzook6138 nice! Which one?
@@OGBemfa its a 1991 318is
ok now that intrigued me 5:28
Damnn this car is so amazing
you have THE best garage and driving channel on youtube i swear… i also have a 330ci and wondering which one of the two do you like better?

@@OGBemfaYeah, thank you! Just confirms I gotta get me one and copy your setup 😆
@@OGBemfa why do you think the e46 has more grip: tyres, suspension?

Gorgeous series 1. Love the Jimmy Hill lip on there ! I'm putting a Honda K24 into mine
Thanks! Ooh very nice! 😆
Thank you for the video
Beautiful car, prefacelift e30s are really underrated
Awesome car, I had a E36 compact with same interior😍😍
Great car!

my E36 has the same head unit! gotta love continental, annoying that u cant charge ur phone with the USB port lol
Yeah that's a bummer
I’m going to buy one soon., unfortunately the cabrios are the cheapest variant here 😢, still I love e30s father owed a 325is coupe 😊 7:19
Where are you from? In my country convertibles are among the most expensive ones together with the coupes…
@@hardforeveryone118 the USA 😞
Wow! What camera do you use?
iPhone 13 Pro 😆
@@OGBemfa video settings? 4K 30fps?

How did you mount the phone ?
What are you mounted on?
The seat! 😃
@@OGBemfa what’s the link to the adapter?😂
@E46Quay no adapter, just shoe laces 😁
@@OGBemfa wth😂I gotta try this now. With your phone?
@E46Quay yup
Hello, very beautiful rims!
Tell me please name, dimensions and tire size. Thank you.
Hi, thank you! Wheels are Ronal LS. Tire sizes: 205/55 R15
@@OGBemfa 15 x 7.5 Et25 ? Do you use some spacers?
@@SimpleAleks Yup, that’s right. I use 3mm in the front and 10mm in the back
@@OGBemfa Thanks man !
You have one of the best looking e30 on my opinion.
@@SimpleAleks No problem, and thank you very much, appreciate it a lot 😃!
what exhaust setup are you running?
The worst possible. No cat, no resonator, just Schmiedmann headers and then straight into a 318i muffler. Sounds horrible irl, don’t try this at home 🤣.
How did you record the sound?
I have 2 mics: one at the intake and one at the exhaust + the iphone which picks up the cabin sound.
@@OGBemfa I tried using a Rode video mic and a Tascam DR-05X for the exhaust sound, but I think the gain was too high... Thanks!
Nice colour, shame about the non-original steering wheel

subscribed! I'm almost at 1k subs as well.
I own a 91 318is and cant wait to get it out of winter storage next week. Your video makes it worst hahaha
