When I acquired the car, it was in excellent shape. There was no rust throughout the entire car, the engine was immaculate, and the handling was superb. Along with these advantages, I will also admit there have been a few problems as well.
I have noticed that the driver's side window sticks when trying to roll it down. Not a major problem, just something that can get on one's nerves a little.
For the sunroof I have had problems with the crank because it doesn't want to stay up when I am finished using the sunroof.
When I park the car and put one the parking brake, sometimes it slips out and rolls out of the driveway. Luckily, this has only happened twice before, and it might be due to my own error, but every time I use it, I pull it up all the way.
When I am driving this car, it is such a rush. The speed and handling are great for a car of that age. Speed wise, I have gotten it up to about 125 miles per hour, although I know it will go further.
When driving it, the sound of the E30 engine is just sheer music to my ears. The way it hums when going down the road at low speed or the way it screams when at a higher RPM, I love this engine.
My 0-60 time is under seven and a half seconds, which is great but not a surprise for the racing engine.
If you put the small flap down with your left hand from the outside, the sunroof will close when you use the crank with your right hand. A small price to pay for perfection...Eamon
