Why just not use an M3 instead of a 320csi?
Also it looks soft in the front and back, nothing like the straight lines in the M3

i thought the old touring cars were only allowed 2 litre engines...

wat an amazing car, I really think that the new 3 series is the best design of Bangle so far, looks cool, and with all those racing-accesories even better

Touring cars had a 2.0 engine limit slapped on them in the early 1990's. This was to make the playing field a little more level- at one time, Jag Mk IIs, Mustangs and Minis were on... at the same time.

Thank you.
