Sierras are on the up up up price wise.. Partly due to the kit car industry.


A 320 will weigh a lot more than a ton, unless it's an E30 in which case the 320 never made 170BHP, the 325 made just about 173 IIRC in E30 guise..

If we are talling E36 then that would be nearer 1300KG like the sierra I guess. Putting it at twice the weight of an avarage Roadster.

170/1.3 = 130BHP per Ton
80/.65 = 123BHP per ton

So on paper a CVH roadster would be very similar to the BMW, except you have better braking and better handling..
