i've data an old "motor" magazine article for the 325ix and 325i it lists the Cd as 0.38 which isn't surprising given its hardly a sleek design.
of course Cd x A is the proper way to compare cars89 E30 325is Lachs Silber - currently M20B31, M20B33 in the works, stroked to the hilt...

yeah, pretty sure the earlier cars were a bit taller, or at least had a bigger air gap up front. BMW did actually wind tunnel test the facelift design, the is spoilers are supposed to reduce drag by a couple %.
also, if you want brick shapes - E30s hardly have any square corners compared to say, a 1979 ford Fairimont. ;)
