That's true... but mostly because BMW motorsport were too busy turning their new (1974) 3 series into this...


In any case... it speaks volumes that I am currently driving my 1200 coupe, while my '78 323i sits in the shed!! The 1200s economy is just too good, and it's just too much fun to drive (and no 1600s for me... the 323i kicks the crap outta that... just as light, 150hp stock, solid build quality - the 1600 is a billy cart by comparison).
