    The construction of the inner fender area and shock towers is way different from the E12 to E28 based cars. The E12s have much larger and flatter shock towers and big overlapping sections of sheet metal that come forward from the mounts and attach to the inner fender section itself. There's a fairly large visible seam where they overlap.

    Also, the wrap around rear bumper didn't start until half way through 1982 production which is when the car changed from the E12 to E28 platform.

    There are various other differences, mostly interior changes that took place in mid-1982.

    In any case, that is a seriously clean shark. I'd do nasty things to own it.

    Very cool! I'd love to find a 628CSi at some point. That's definitely an E28 based 6er going by the inner fenders, but the 2.8 liter M30 retained a mechanical distributor pretty much through the end of production I think. Funny that it got the Motronic manifold though!

    my 2.8 in my e12 has the tube runners, its interesting to see this one with the new manifold. I guess this was a motronic car and not jetronic?

    Depends on how you define wheezy I guess.

    Jesus that's cool. Strange seeing 2.5/2.8 stamped on an M30 intake manifold.
