I owned a 1989 E30 2-door sedan for 18 years, so I know the E30 very well. The '89 E30 came with the M20B25 used in the 325is. Fantastic car.
About 8 years ago out in my rural neck of the woods a '89 E30 Cabrio manual trans came up for sale. It was a road-side advertised deal. It looked great and the interior was in good shape, but it was dog ass slow and had none of the dynamics of the 2-door sedan as fondly remembered it driving. To find a near perfect E30 Cabrio at this point, it will be on BaT (Bring a Trailer.com) and the price will get ridiculously jacked out of proportion.
Can't speak to the Benz.
