Description

As the first generation of the 3 Series, the BMW E21 shaped BMW’s sporty compact class from the mid-1970s. The 323i advanced to become the coveted top-of-the-range variant of this series and stood for lively six-cylinder dynamics and a discreet racing look around 1980. Solido captures precisely this flair with the BMW E21 323i from 1980 in 1:18 scale – timeless, authentic and with a great sense of the lines of the prototype. The silver metallic paintwork emphasizes the clear two-door silhouette with long hood, compact rear and the striking kink at the C-pillar. At the front, the typical twin round headlights and the BMW kidney grille dominate, while narrow trim strips set elegant accents at the sides. The filigree, period-correct multi-spoke wheels and the slim bumpers with fine chrome trim round off the appearance in the style of the early 1980s. The model has well-balanced proportions and cleanly traced body edges, so that the characteristic presence of the 323i can be felt immediately. A harmonious collector’s item for all those who appreciate the roots of the 3 Series DNA and want to experience the charm of the classic BMW design language in their display case. Since 1932, Solido has stood for detailed diecast models of iconic vehicles – from historic classics to modern sports cars.
