1990 BMW M3 Sport Evolution With 74 Miles – Video

1990 BMW M3 Sport Evolution With 74 Miles – Video

BMW built several limited run E30 M3 specials over the course of four years, from 1988 through 1991, but the most special and powerful of all was the Sport Evolution you see here. Only 600 units were made, all fitted with a larger displacement 2.5-liter straight-four featuring a number of upgrades such as special nozzles that sprayed oil under the pistons to keep them cool. Power in this model increased to 238PS (235hp) at 7,000 rpm, but peak torque was slightly down over the Evolution II at 177 lb-ft (240Nm) at 4,750 rpm.

The most extensively modified M3 was essentially a track special sporting numerous improvements over other E30s. While keeping the Evolution II’s thinner glass, lighter trunk and bumpers, cooling ducts in place of the regular M3’s foglights, and 225/45 16-inch tires, it received unique front apron and rear wing with adjustable extensions, re-profiled grille slats and wider front fenders. It also sits 10mm closer to the ground than other normal M3s riding on 16-inch wheels with darker cross spokes. It was available exclusively in Jet Black or Brilliant red.
