I've got a thing about production lines, really like watching how it's made, it fascinates me and I love e30's so would be a cool combination to see :)

Have you seen there is a youtube video of how an E46 is made throughout the production line, but shows you nothing about the engine! :(

i wonder if any of those cars are zoners??

funny i noticed one pic of then putting an engine in from below, and another showing the engine on the chassis and the body being dropped onto it, wonder why the two different approaches?
