Hi Qbert, Great find with the reference for the story about the black 5 Series! I have added it to the E28 article: BMW_5_Series_(E28)#Body_and_interior. Cheers, 1292simon ( talk) 23:58, 14 December 2019 (UTC)
Hi 1292simon, no problem, these facts came from a Feb 1982 Road & Track review of the then new e28 528e, which was in the Road & Track article compilation book. From these basic facts, the myth about the disabled electric windows in the e12 started. However, those stories are all unsubstantiated. I just wrote down what Road & Track's John Lamm wrote. It seems the myth built up over the years, from these basic facts.
