1977 BMW 530i with 3.9L six
I would think this kind of car would outperform, and feel better than the M5 from the '80s. More torque from a large 2 valve motor for real world driving. Like with the C4 Corvette, when the LT1 350...

BMW Turbo Gullwing
I have always thought the Bracq 1972 Gullwing was a nice looking and more interesting car, than the later Giugiaro e26 M1. With an uprated 2 liter 2002 Turbo engine (200 hp) it could do 0-60 mph in...
