    I've been seeing decent looking 325ixs drop under $3k. What's the line on these puppies? Does the extra weight, parasitic drag and nose heaviness slow them down too much? Are they much more likely to break? Do they take boost well?

    There was some discussion about these just a couple weeks ago: GRM 325ix Thread

    Sorry. Should have done my homework

    It is better to wear out than to rust out.

    From what I've seen on some of the E30 forums: Good daily driver. Not so good as a performance car. In other words, it's not the BMW WRX some may hope it is.
