HP (318) (325) ? Im buying and need to know

Hey. im buying a 325 or 318 from between 84-91... any sweet models between those years?

anyone have a link to a site that can give me (hp) for all the bimmers from the 80's?

I plan on buying a bmw this weekend but please i need your help .don't let me kick my self in the ass for buying the shitty one cuz it was cheaper...

thanks.

hey,

all 3er models from that exact time period are E30's. all the 325i's put out 168 hp and 164 lb/ft torque.

the 325e's were fuel efficient (sp?) cars that put out a lil more then 120 hp and a nice 170 lb/ft torque.

there were two types of 318's available with different engines.

the mid 1980's models used the same engine from the E21 3er's. they put out about about 100 hp and and more the 130 lb/ft torque.

the '90 some model had a new engine that put out 136 hp and 127 lb/ft of torque.

of course these are all US only models. BMW always gives many more options to european buyers.

Hmm was a 323i ever even released in north america? My paps had her and had her tuned like mad while still N/A it was a beast ;)

to my knowledge the 323 was not realeased in the united states. but i could be wrong.

i actually think that keeping E30's n/a is better then super or turbo charging it, especially considering the age of the vehicles, as well as the inherient mileage and use. . .
