I cruise the highway at lower speeds. No reason to keep that thing wound out it will shorten the lifespan of the engine over time if you do this frequently.

Yeah, but isn't that the point of a highway?

Looking for a 318is right now.  Already test drove one.  It was a blast it was just to beat to get back to my house safely.  No car is worth putting my life at danger.  Just found another one I'm gunna go check out.  Here's some pics of my past e30s.

Here's some drifting action at the industrial park.

Can't wait to get into the 318is fanbus.

Well, i looked at it for real this time.  The car was alot more beat then I thought it would be.  On of the tires was shredded.  It had a bottlecap on the front right low on air.  IT had the other rim in the back with a brand new tire but shit.  The belts all squeaked when i turned it on.  They stopped like a minute after.  It was leaking coolant and PS fluid.  The car also had a wierd noise coming from the motor.  It was either a bad water pump or some metal in the motor.  That really sketched me out.  So i didnt end up buying it i offered 1300 but he said no he could only go to 1400.  If he woulda takin 1300 i woulda bought it.  

Im hooked on the m42 in the e30.  That thing was a ball to test drive.

lol, guys I'm just kidding.  I never went and looked at it.  Hopefully I can go check I out today.  The guy almost sold it.  SO I have to go get this quick.  

The car seems to be a great deal for 1500.  

Only thing is my friends keep hatin on me for wanting it.  They keep tellin me that 4 cyl are for rice burners.  They all have vr6 mk3 gti's.  Boy those are a blast to drive.  But I really don't care what they think.

Oh, and PS:  my buddy ricer rob has a honda eg hatch slammed and FI.  We did a 2 step launch right out of a toll booth onto the highway at 4k rpm's and ripped all the way through 4th gear.  That thing pulled like a god damn bat out of hell.  Got to 120 in about 14 seconds out of a 1.6 liter.
