Is the E30 M3 the most iconic touring car ever?

I'd agree with Godzilla. BMW got a few wins, like the Sierra, but their luck ran out when the R32 released.
>>
>>28976547
lol

nah that would be the 190

Fot me it was the old 4.0L DTM cars. Particularly the CLK.

How did such an irrelevant series such as the DTM manage to boost the value of so many cars?
>>
>>28976562
>BMW got a few wins
1436 to be exact.
>but their luck ran out when the R32 released.
The E30 dominated JTC-2 but ok

idiot

obvious answer
dub dubs of truth

This.
An unparalleled car of magnificent engineering.
I'm LTB picrel.
>>
>>28976562
this car primarily won in japan and australia due to a cheating team. It was nowhere near the most successful touring car or group A car.

Every time this fucking place is malding like crazy against the GOAT car brand - BMW

>>28976876
>muh cheating
lmao the R32 had additional weight penalties imposed upon it for no reason at all and it still mogged everything on track.
>>
12000 revs
>>
>>28976876
It never cheated in Japan it just massively outclassed everything else that was fielded.
The Gibson team in Australia was cheating though.
And in ATCC without the cheating team it was continuously mogged by the FD RX7 which was down on power compared to the GTR.
>>
>>28977563
the viper had over 1000 lbs of weight penalties and it didn't even have to cheat like the GTR to win.
>>
>>28976703
>How
A handful of men in the past realised that open wheel racing is for fags
>>
>>28977569
Gibson weren't cheating either. The Australian interpretation of Group A rules was just way more relaxed than anywhere else so their cars were the fastest. Everyone in Australia was doing it, not just Gibson.

If you ain't cheating, you ain't trying.

And somehow the car that bested both BMW and Mercedes twice in a row is not nearly as famous or valuable as either of those.

probably because the road cars disintegrated and you can no longer even find audis from that era.
>>
>>28977638
I mean the team owner actually admitted to cheating to bypass power restrictions in an interview around 15-20 years ago.
But personally I wouldn't classify it as cheating if they weren't caught in the act, seeing as half of racing is just trying to get around regulations without getting called out on it.

as an owner of Alfa 155 I love the V6TI even if it has nothing in common with my alfa
>>28976857
im so used to my 155 having a small spoiler that one without one looks naked to me

what's so funny?

One of these. The Sierra just wasn't as prolific; I'm not even sure if there was a factory effort from Ford Europe or if it was all Cosworth doing the effort.
>>28976539
>>28976562
Only raced in australia and japan.
>>
>>28976526
Imagine actually 'touring' in a clapped out go cart like that? That'd be a really uncomfortable tour
