coupe similarity with sedan

[ABCowner]

Hi all,Contemplating on a 328Ci and understood the following from various sources. Appreciate if any Ci owners can confirm; 1) body parts are totally different from sedan 2) engine part is basically the same with other 2.8litre of the era. 3) suspension are the same as sedanBased on the above, I conclude the maintance of a sport coupe is basically the same as say 318i sedan. Am I wrong?

wrong yes!

318 has a 4 cylinder engine as opposed to 328 having 6 cylinders.

OK - probably not the engine dept. Is the suspension the same? The lower arm, steering rack arm or the shocks the same?
