It is a 327 with the engine of the 328. Thus the racy coupe is finally given the right drive. And all with fully synchronized gearbox with an even civilian surcharge. In general the 327 is ahead of its time. Figure 2 shows the one-piece, back opening hood. With most cars of the time, this is divided and to open sideways. The modernity of the front is underlined by the transitions between fender and hood. The rear is marked by half-clad rear wheels, a covered rear wheel in the tailgate and license plates with interior lighting.
