1988 BMW M3 Cabriolet E30

The first generation BMW M3 was based on the 1986 BMW 3-Series E30, and although it looked very similar shared very little body panels – only the hood and roof. It was powered by a specially developed 2.3 liter inline 4-cylinder engine producing 195 hp (143 kW) fitted with a 5-speed manual gearbox. This remarkable peace of engineering allowed the BMW M3 E30 to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7.2 seconds and reach a top speed of 235 km/h (146 mph).

The hand-build BMW M3 Cabriolet was introduced in 1988 producing 215 hp (160 kW) and capable of reaching 239 km/h (148 mph) making it the fastest four-seater cabriolet at that time. With only 786 units ever produced is quite rare.

The BMW M3 is a high-performance version of the BMW 3 Series, developed by BMW’s in-house motorsport division, BMW M GmbH. M3 models have been produced for every generation of 3 Series since the E30 M3 was introduced in 1986.

The initial model was available in a coupé body style, with a convertible body style added soon after. M3 Sedans were available during the E36 (1994–1999) and E90 (2008–2012) generations. Since 2014, the M3 has been solely produced in the sedan body style, due to the coupé and convertible models being rebranded as the 4 Series range, making the high-performance variant the M4.
