Sammo 2544 Report post Posted February 7, 2022 8 hours ago, leonf said: what came first ---- this or the Fiat 850 coupe? they are definitely brothers from a different mother. Engine in the BMW is probably at the opposite end of the car to the Fiat though? Bit of googling show the Fiat 850 Coupe was introduced in 1965 and the BMW 1600 GT was 1968. However, the BMW was based in the 1964 Glas GT which they acquired so the specific design appeared to come first. Probably developed at same time though. Fiat was 670kg and 47hp. BMW was a portly 960kg but was packing a mammoth 105hp to offset the weight. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NZ00Z3 187 Report post Posted February 28, 2022 (edited) The BMW 1939 327/28 Roadster had the first triple carbs on any BMW, So Alpina is a little late on the scene. Bet the Alpina went like stink though. Edited February 28, 2022 by NZ00Z3 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
