The E31 webpage has a database that identifies the year, model (840, 850, CSI, etc.), transmission, location, owner, pictures, and any other data that helps with the knowledge of these cars. This webpage is available only to those that are owners of these cars. As a result of this work and the enthusiasm of the owners there is now a stand alone BMW E31 chapter within the BMW CCA.
Has anything like this registry been started for these cars? Are there production numbers by year somewhere? There seems to be a lot of salvaging going on with these cars which would make those that are left even more rare depending upon how many were initially produced.
The VIN Decoder thread here is a great beginning to a registry.

A registry for the Clubsports could be interesting (not feasible for all Compacts), however hosting it here would be a decision for Steven to make. If there's interest in this, I can provide a list of all 200 Clubsport VINs.
