Decision Time
I'm thinking about decommisoning my ol 1987? 300e and getting a another inexpensive car, and im leaning toward a 1991 190e 2.6. is it worth it? What kind of stats could i get on that car? If i don't think its powerful/fast enough i might wanna get a 1993 325i because i found a good price on one. any thoughts?

None of the EVO or EVO II's (just over 500 of each were manufactured) made it into the US market due to federalizing it to comply with US standards. You can find them for sale in Europe, but plan on adding about $10K to the purchase price to make it registerable in the US. They can be imported without modifications for racing purposes, but not for the street.
Why not look for a 2.3-16, the Cosworth twin cam? There's always a few of those for sale.
