Dealer Description

The 1988 BMW M3 E30 is nothing short of a legend. As the first-generation M3, this car set the gold standard for performance sedans and remains one of the most iconic vehicles ever produced by BMW's Motorsport division. Built to homologate BMW's entry into DTM racing, the E30 M3 is a true drivers car in every sense. Powered by the high-revving 2.3L S14 inline-4 engine, it delivers around 192 horsepower in U.S. spec—plenty of punch for a car this light, with razor-sharp handling and one of the best steering feels of any car from its era. The 5-speed manual transmission shifts with precision, and when paired with the car's rear-wheel-drive layout, it delivers a balanced, rewarding experience on backroads and track alike. This M3 embodies BMW's Ultimate Driving Machine ethos. Flared fenders, a purposeful stance, and aggressive aerodynamic upgrades distinguish it from the standard 3 Series. Its motorsport DNA isn't just for show—this is a car that was born on the racetrack and refined for the road. If you're looking for a piece of automotive history that still knows how to dance, the 1988 BMW M3 E30 is an appreciating classic that delivers thrills and timeless style in equal measure.
