    The BMW 3 Series: A Kidney-Shaped History

    Sorry if this is a repost - Read it today and thought it was a pretty neat look into a some BMW history

    The introduction of the first BMW 3 Series in July 1975 marked the beginning of one of the most remarkable success stories in BMW — and general automotive — history. It was the launch of a new, sporty car with compact dimensions. Now, three and a half decades later, the face of the 3 Series — and its iconic snatched-from-the-five-series kidney grille — has evolved into the new F30-platform 2012 BMW 3 Series. Let's take a look back.

    kidneys are getting larger every generation. a fitting trend for a car getting fatter with each passing generation.
