BMW and other European brands often use their past great models as a selling point. Something Lexus and Infiniti can't really do. So which models from the past contribute to the BMW legend? I think some came from tuners.

I dunno; you can make ANYTHING handle really well, but fixing that cheesy body takes a whole 'nuther slate of skills/dollars.

The hardtop coupe is decent, but there's no prettying up/ classing up the econobox sedans. 

What a classic!
