The problem with putting these cars in Stock are that they had special
competition suspension options that are Street Prepared oriented; adjustable
front camber plates, special brake discs, Grupe N adjustable suspension. As
delivered standard they came with special trunk kits; baffled oil pan and
dual oil pump pickup, adjustable rear spoiler, and front subframe crossbrace.
Installing trunk kit items automatically voids the warranty. Engines were
dyno'd & handpicked from std. assembly line, plus BMW specifically stated
that theses vehicles were made for competition. Aluminum door skins, stiffer
suspension springs with 1" lower ride height, sound padding removed, special
seats, and a lower rear gear were also std.
Hardly the type of vehicle to be classed in Stock.
