No 4 cylinder turbo existed, at least not original from BMW, the only original turbo version was the 324td (turbodiesel) which was a R6 engine.
E30 is a lovely classic, wish myself I had a nice 325i coupe or M3.

good catch. for some reason, I thought the E30 M3 had a turbo as it had a 4 cylinder. That is the holy grail of M3's.

Here is my 1991 Honda Integra LS (DA9), outside of this car I also have a 2012 Honda NSC110 Dio scooter which I get around on as well when the weather is better than it is now in Australia. I was really happy to get my hands on one of these Integras as I've always liked them and I rarely see them anymore, though I imagine they're much more common over in the US where you guys have a much bigger fanfare for old Hondas.
Love it! Actually, they're definitely a rare find (especially in good condition like yours) even over here. I still see one occasionally, but even the DC5's are kind of a unicorn now... wish I'd held on to mine. Great balance of performance and economy in those cars for their time. Now if they'd only been RWD. ;)

Prior to the lovely I posted in #831, I was fortunate enough to score this 1998 CPO autobahn burner when the 100,000 mile warranty with included maintenance was still a thing.

2020 Kia Picanto. For what it is, I reckon it’s near-perfect. My only regret is that it isn’t the 3 cylinder turbo model.

My brother noticed an old headlight reflecting sunlight as he was walking past an old building about three months ago. To cut a long story short he found the owner of the building and after a long and protracted negotiations is now the proud owner of a Citroen C4 circa 1929.Photos show her as she sat in the old garage and after the first wash couple days ago. She was driven into the building in 1983 where she remained until earlier this week. After procuring a 6 volt battery she turned over and started up!. Car is in remarkable original condition both inside and outside. Now begins the restoration process.

Is that original paint?

Quite the find. I don't know about the Citroen, but older American cars on 6 volt systems, you can usually get away with putting an 8 volt golf cart battery in them. Makes them crank up much easier when cold.

Very cool. It's maybe more desirable in it's original paint rather than new paint
Yep, I'd do what needs to be done to get her into good running/driving condition but leave the rest alone.
It's only original once. ;)

Thank you Sal, when my friend told me back in Sept he was going to sell it I couldn't let it pass. Two years ago it received NCRS 'Top Flight' status at a Regional meet, scoring 99.3. It marks my 7th Corvette over the past 45 years,
