Grant 4 Report post Posted January 17, 2004 a small correction on above (and an addition) e = eta (either greek or latin, means efficient/economical) a = automatic (with the exception of someone like Tim or me who have converted there auto to manual).

37 South 6 Report post Posted January 17, 2004 showing my E30 ignorance but what is in the "IS" engine wise.. The 318 is M42 engine has a max.power output of 103 kw..(318 i, has 85 kw.) Claimed top speed (318 is ) is 213 k. The 320i (e36) in comparison , puts out 110 kw.. not a lot of difference, from the chain driven twin cam M42 engine..

I'd be impressed at a 318i putting 100kW at the wheels. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
