1990 Sbarro 328

Admins Take

Built by Sbarro under official license from BMW, this model is a faithful recreation of the legendary BMW 328 from the 1930s. The original 328 is exceptionally rare, with only a handful of surviving examples today. Designed to revive the 328’s streamlined silhouette and lightweight chassis for the modern era, 462 units were reportedly produced, allowing enthusiasts to enjoy the charm of a classic in a more accessible form.

Highlights

• Power comes from a BMW 02 Series inline-four naturally aspirated engine driving the rear wheels (FR layout). The car faithfully reproduces the 328’s iconic proportions — a long, flowing hood, low roofline, and rounded fenders — embodying the essence of pre-war sports car design.
   
• The body uses lightweight FRP and aluminum construction, resulting in a registered weight of just 760 kg. A Weber carburetor upgrade improves throttle response, while enhanced suspension and brakes provide confident, reliable handling unique to a well-engineered replica.
• Inside, the cockpit captures the spirit of the original, with period-correct seats, gauges, and layout, while offering comfort, visibility, and modern safety enhancements.
• The 1974 Sbarro BMW 328 Replica offers collectors and enthusiasts a rare opportunity to experience the design, character, and driving enjoyment of the classic 328 in a practical, modernized form.
