A buddy of mine stopped over yesterday with his new purchase. A really nice 1 owner schwartz 325is with like 129k on it, Its as close to showroom as youll find and once hes done with it it will be perfect. We got to talking and he told me it had a close ratio tranny in it. So I asked him if it was a dogleg and he said no. So i told him that all 6 cyl e30's came with the 260 and they wernt close ratio. Then he sends me this from Wikipedia
The 325is was an upgrade from the standard 325i, as some new features were added to the car as standard. These included the full electrics package, black roof-liner, BMW "is" body kit, BMW 14 inch BBS "Basketweave" wheels and a Close Ratio gearbox. Other features also found on the 325is were options, however over time, some have been mistaken for standard features. These options include a 25% Limited Slip Differential (LSD), M Sport suspension with Bilstein struts, M-Sport II Steering wheel, BMW sports seats, leather interior, sunroof and BMW 15 inch BBS wheels. Options differed on vehicles produced in the United States.
Now half of that is bullshit like the black headliner and IS body kit and 15 inch wheels. Is wikipedia always wrong??
