I'll start from the bottom...
13. What classic BMW roadster was the rival of the Mercedes-Benz 300SL? How many were produced?
Was it the 507??? Daddy of the current Z's?? It's not a rival it was an attempt to rival the sl, a failure at that. I think less 300 were built and it almost made BMW bankrupt. A beauty though.

Again, you are correct with No.5 and 11..
5. Lamborghini.
11. Because three-wheelers attracted less purchase tax and their road fund license was cheaper.
No. 6 have something related to the hero of suspense series "24". :rock:

The answer so far...
1. The BMW 3/15 in September 1928.
3. 1938 BMW 328
5. Lamborghini.
11. Because three-wheelers attracted less purchase tax and their road fund license was cheaper.
13. The BMW 507. Just 254 507's were sold between 1956 and 1959.
