Though the car was newer then the 02 series, the new e21 3 series with a 2 litre engine weren't a match for the 2002tii.
In 1980 BMW replaced the 318 by the 318i, which now had fuel injection and 105 horsepower.
After introducing a high-end e21 in 1977 (the 323i), BMW also thought of the people with a lower budget, who still wanted to own a 3 series and the 315 was introduced in 1981.

The BMW 3 Series is a line of compact sedans manufactured by BMW since May of 1975.
The 3 Series was for some time the smallest of cars manufactured by BMW, although that place has recently been taken by the BMW 1 Series.
Consequently, BMW decided to leave well enough alone: while larger BMWs followed a more avant-garde Bangle style, the latest E90 is not a radical departure from the current model.

It replaced the BMW 2002 and was succeeded by the BMW E30.
Without it, there was the distinct possibility of BMW moving from its core mission of building ultimate driving machines and in doing so alienating an existing customer base long enamoured with the charms of the smaller 2002.
Rosche, a BMW engineer from 1957 through to his retirement in 1999, already had such iconic engines as the 286hp 6 cylinder of the M1 and the 2litre motor of the 2002 turbo (famously, one of the most politically incorrect cars of all time) to his name.

 Sikercápa - BMW E21
Remekül illettek a BMW-ről kialakuló új képbe a cég sportsikerei: a túraautó-bajnokságban induló nagy, 3.0 CSL kupék után néhány évvel egy kompakt BMW is megkapta a jellegzetes csíkozást: a 320i.
A kétliteres, négyhengeres motorból 300 lóerőt préseltek ki a BMW Motorsport GmbH mérnökei, a BMW Junior csapatba pedig a Német Motorsport-bajnokságban versenyző három fiatalt, Marc Surert, Eddie Cheevert és Manfred Winkelhockot szerződtették.
Az eladások a bajorok legszebb álmait is felülmúlták - 1981 májusában elkészült az egymilliomodik E21-es -, ráadásul minden második-harmadik E21-tulajdonos gondolta úgy, következő autója is csak BMW lehet.

 E21BMW.net : E21 Graymarket Website
In the case of 1977-83 3 series BMWs (E21 chassis), it made better sense financially to certify just one all-purpose model, the US-only 320i.
Examples include the 323i (both E21 and E30) and 745i for BMW, and cars such as the original 911 Turbo and Mercedes Benz 190E 2.3/16 that were available only in Europe for several years before their respective manufacturers certified and imported them for sale here.
BMW was (and still is) rather ambivalent towards them.

 Grassroots Motorsports and Classic Motorsports :: View topic - BMW 320i (E21)?   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The E21 I am looking at has had the body redone, with metal not fibreglass and bondo, and has been stored inside ever since.
Both the Audi and BMW weigh in about the same (~2500lbs) have similar power (~110hp) and in stock form, fall into the same category (H-stock).
BMW did tend to find ways to remove weight now and then, so perhaps you need to buy a blown up 80-82 320i and stick the earlier 2.0 liter engine in it for an optimal autocross FSP car, I don't know.
