I have a 1990 brillantrot with 70k miles that used to belong to my brother and it is a beaultifull and fast car. Its a REAL LOOKER and if you get closer it seems the car came out of a showroom. He probably spent more than $15k (from suspentions, headersm dinan upgrades, etc) in the 5 years he owned the car. I think it was worth every peny. I also own a 1998 black M3 sedan with 25k miles and I tell you that the 1990 e30 M3 is a lot more fun to drive. The e36 is now jealous of the e30, but they are both gona be babied equaly.
