I know the AWD E30s are not common, but I don’t know exactly how “not common”.

But adding AWD to a RWD is like...putting nuts in your ice cream. Some people say they like it but it doesn’t make the ice cream any better.

Did some searching.

Total US E30 325iX sales:

1987: 297

1988: 310

1989: 844

1990: 699

1991: 454

1992: 41

1993: 2

Total: 2,647 (29,589 worldwide)

Damn, that’s not a lot. I saw one the other week on I-70 while driving up to Winter Park. It had a couple snowboards on the roof.

Am jelly.

Seriously? There are actually quite a few by me in NY.

Doing more searching I’m coming up with two different sets of numbers. One says ~2,600 total, the other says ~3,700 total. Either way it’s not a lot.

And yet people complain about my AWD car because “it’s a FWD platform and we’re going to treat it like a FWD car even though 60% of the power goes to the back”

I think I’ve only seen one in Marin on the road personally. And Marin is a heavy hitter when it comes to BMW sales.

I’m guessing Audi’s newer awd? Audis were already longitudinal FWD though so I can see that being okay. But like a transverse AWD is eww. Plus it was FWD -> AWD, which is like...having a bowl of nuts, then adding spoonfuls of ice cream on top of it. It’s just better.
