STARTER KIT BMW 328 Roadster

The commercial ideal of BMW at its outset was the manufacture and
sale of popular vehicles. However, the arrival of the six-cylinder engine
together with the requirements of the Chancellery (1936), which obliged
German industrialists of the period to manufacture top products,
both with regard to quality and to prestige, led BMW to reconsider its
commercial policy and to orient its production. This led to the birth
of the BMW 328, of which the prototype was presented in June 1936,
equipped with an 80hp engine. The BMW 328 Roadster was available
from dealers from February 1937. It was one of the ‘dream sports cars’ of
its time, with 464 cars built until the beginning of 1940.
