My 1.8L E30 is slow as balls as it is. Sounds like you'll be camping out the right lane a bit.

[spitting on the camera intensifies]

518 are perfectly sufficient to flow in traffic.

200D on the other hand are actually dangerously slow.

>>16262861
Why not? It's a cheap luxury car with timeless looks.

>>16262875
And yet it's still over 3500lbs and the 1.8 is an anemic little bastard that barely keeps the 318i above the speed limit

>>16265810
Idk what you're talking about but I've gotten to 120mph in a 316i E36.

>>16262829
shit's gonna be slow

>>16265819
did you drop it out of a plane?

>>16265808
>luxury

>>16265819
You're discussing with bus riders.
The majority haven't even seen a 316i in person.

The 316 and 318 are slow compared to the 6cylinders but they're enough for DDing.

A 518 is really pushing the lower limits though.
Still manageable but you really have to be a calm soul for these.

80% of your 90's japan shitboxes are slower than this.
it is kinda slow, acceptable but far from horrific.

The BMW is definitely doing better in that poorfag category

>>16265931
>english wiki

It is marketed as "luxury car" outside Germoney.

In the domestic market it was also mainly a "normal" family car, absurdly barebone like the E Class Mercedes, too. Such naked BMWs and Benzes usually never made it to Burgerland.

>>16265945
Ok, cool. I'm not German, so it's a luxury car to me. It can be a normal family car to you if you want.

>>16265928
thats like slower than a Civic

pretty awful

>>16265956
its not a luxury car no matter who you are

>>16265928
a fucking 1.2 twingo is faster than this.

>>16266056
twingo 1 was 700kg, with the short gearbox JB1, even the 1.2 cléon engine with 60 hp would haul ass.

>>16262829
E34 518i on steelies is literally max comfy. Should be /o/'s ideal car.

>>16266082
Tru.
Non-leather seats makes it borderline-economy sedan for me, but it still rides and looks like a luxury car of that era.
Ok, I'll agree that the 518i shouldn't be considered a luxury car, but the ride quality and feel definitely is that of a luxury car

>>16266090
>max comfy
max comfy because you don't have any other option than going slow and stay calm, otherwise you'd go insane trying.

>>16266090
I thought /o/ liked incredible hihg speed lap times

>km/h

This is literally interstate cruising speed in America.

>>16267195
the video is about 0 to 60 acceleration, not vmax, top honk

>>16265919

Can vouch for truth.

Only real downside is that the timing belt should be changed every 25k miles/40k kilometers due to a design error (goes for all M40 equiped cars)

~just E34 things~

>>16267731
what was the twongo's endgame

I used to own one of these.

As a normal car for driving around in they are perfectly fine, they cruise nicely and don't feel like they are struggling. Obviously they aren't fast, but they don't struggle to get up to speed or on hills or anything.

I would guess most people in this thread shitting on them are bus riders that haven't actually driven one or even been in one.

I used to have e34 524td, the 115hp one. It was perfect dd, decent economy, decent speed and acc, very comfy, could haul 4 ppl plus baggage easily.
I really don't understand why people don't like these cars.

>>16265933
reminds me of a 60hp Audi 80 I used to drive
