this will sit alongside a highly modded 328 sport and a mini cooper S, neither of which have any space at all. I Need summit to lob 2 big dogs in, and if you think its a strange thing to do u obviously didin't see the one in PBMW a few months back, bloody awsome motor

I believe that the touring is not only stiffer than other e30's but also has better weight distribution with a 6 (or 12) cyclinder engine.
