          yea like i said did it have 100 or 125hp cuz i think it had 125 because the m10 of 1983 came with the bosch k jetronic fuel injection. in the U.S

            Pretty sure it was around 108 or 110hp. Remember you are talking about a 1.8L motor not a 2.0L m10. BMW did not make any FWD e21's. All were RWD

                BMW has never made ANY production model FWD car.

                All BMW's are RWD or 4wd.

                  I'd have to assume around 100hp, since the m10 in the 320i e21 is nearly the same as the m10 in the e30 318i, which makes around 105. Makes sense since the e30 m10 has more advanced injection and a better flowing head, or so I've heard....

                    True.

                    False.

                    And E21 320i had ~0.2l bigger engine.

                          It is, and yes manufactured by same corporation and sold mostly by same organisation, didn't think of it, because it is not sold as BMW.
