This has been my first car. I bought it about a year ago and have been loving it ever since. The car is a 1991 e30 318i. It really handles well and shifts smoothly. I really love to drive it. I just recently have rolled over to the hundred thousand mile club and still truckin. I drive the car quite a bit and it runs perfectly. The only thing bad about Bmw's is that you can't just go any where to get them repaired on this is something to really consider when looking to buy. Because they can be quite costly to own. well good luck.
