Introduced at the Paris Motor Show in 1992, the BMW E36 M3 marked a clear departure from its E30 predecessor, moving to a more refined and usable performance car while retaining characteristic Motorsport credentials from decades of development.

Power came from BMW’s S50 3.0-litre straight-six engine, featuring individual throttle bodies and variable valve timing (VANOS), delivering smooth, linear performance.

The range was further developed in 1995 with the arrival of the M3 Evolution, powered by the 3.2-litre S50B32 producing 321bhp, paired with a 6-speed manual or optional SMG transmission, along with chassis and braking improvements that reinforced its reputation as one of the standout performance cars of the era.
