Yeah, E30 rear suspension is pretty entertaining in a car with < 200whp. More than that and it starts to get exciting, and I don't mean that in a good way necessarily.

Then again the MZ4 has a vastly better rear suspension and still handles like it's drunk, but I attribute that to the bizarre spring rates and high speed compression damping BMW spec'd into that car.
