Because it's only got 2/3rds of a real BMW engine.

Doesn't look that cheap.

I just sold my E30 325i touring for a grand, it had every bush replaced on it, new shocks and springs along with H&R anti roll bars, new discs and pads all round and a new complete 3 piece exhaust system. Total cost to get it like that over the last couple of months was £1240.

Every single E30 I have tried is very, very tired and all need at least a grand spending on them to get them feeling good again, very few that have been done properly.

I did a similar thing to mine and it handles very well.
