engine: dip stick

notice the chromed dip stick...very modest, and clean touch!

exhaust: 1976 Early rear valance

notice the muffler opening on the early 1976 318...the rear valance on this little jem is further towards the center of the car...the muffler end pipe is also bent and is another unique feature of the early model car...

compared to...the later styled muffler placement...

and the 6 cyl 323i dual exhaust below...
