These are my RC racing trucks and the only thing that fits in them is my hamster but my computer and these are the main reasons I drive a junker! I heard RC racing is big in the U.K.!

Which is why you pay more for a used e30 M3 than a used e36 M3 or a used e46 M3 ... and not by small margins. It's getting to the point where used e9X M3's are not that much more than a used e30 M3's.
The e30 M3 is one of those cars where if you can find it for sale, and the person selling it doesn't realize that it has a cult following, BUY IT!!!

Sick car. Don't make em like they used to...

Absolutely.

I'm not one for german cars (while i'm german myself), but I'd take a good old e30 m3 over any new audi, mercedes, vw, opel or whatever.

Same with the Scrirocco, i'd rather take a 84' Scirocco than the new one...

That is poetry! I know english isn't your first language and I don't mean any offence at all, but sometimes the loose translations come off so poetic.

Dunno if i'd call that a clown car.... but i really hate the stupid grin Mazda gave their newer cars. I know i've probably said that before.... but it just looks even more odd on a smaller car. haha.

Not a bad little car though.

Thanks..only first image is opened in Photoshop and the raw settings were altered but the last 3 are straight from the camera...it really is that red...I call it a clown car as I don't take myself too seriously in it...speaking of serious...that bike looks much more serious than my car...quite nice.

lillelj: My mom actually has a similar Cannondale road bike. I'm actually trying to sell my Cannondale F7 mountain bike due to the fact that i rarely ever ride it (had it for a year, only put about 18 miles on it), and because i'm really getting into Stand Up Paddling.
