actually, we're both wrong. Eta is the seventh letter in the greek alphabet
(been a while since i had to recite it). i do know though that the "e" in
"325e" refers to this letter, and not the german word for fuel injection. Eta
is the greek symbol for efficiency, and those cars were designed to be, well,
efficient.
