        I'm sure they exist howver I have never seen an owner's manual that specified 89 octane gas. I think it's pretty much worthless either you need to run premium or you don't. I don't think car companies tune cars for use with 89 octane I think it's oil company genius getting you to pay for something you don't need thinking you're doing something good for your vehicle so you drive away happy and they have more of your money.

          There was no cabriolet ETA.

              Technically the Baur isn't an E30 cab, it's a.. well, Baur. But yes there are 325e Baurs.

                            -89 octane is just blended from 87 and 91/93. Really it is.
