BMW 327 Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1937–1941) — First Generation
The BMW 327 is a pre-war sports tourer offered in elegant Cabrio and Coupe forms. Its first generation pairs refined straight-six power with a light, low-slung body built for relaxed long-distance driving.
The BMW 327 engine in the selected examples is a 2.0-litre petrol six driving the rear wheels through a manual gearbox, in both the 2.0 MT Cabrio and the 2.0 MT Coupe. This classic front-engine, rear-drive powertrain favours smooth, flexible pulling power over outright revs, so the drivetrain feels unhurried in normal touring.
