BMW Took On Mercedes... And Built A Masterpiece!

This is the story of the E30 BMW M3.
How this rebellious little coupe not only took on Mercedes and won, but changed the very definition of what a sports car could, and SHOULD be.

The 1980s played host to a rivalry that was as fierce as it was transformative.
At the heart of this storm was an automobile that was to rewrite the narrative of performance cars and leave an indelible mark on automotive history.

Picture this: The smell of burning rubber, the deafening roar of finely tuned engines, and a battle of egos and engineering prowess between two automotive giants;

And on the front lines of this duel for dominance was a car that would change it all – a machine built not only with steel, rubber, and a splash of audacity but also with a thirst for victory that was nearly insatiable.
It’s a race car built for the road - and not the other way around.
It was the secret weapon built to give the middle finger to the rest of the world
And it would change the very definition of what a sports car COULD be, forever.
-It’s the BMW E30 M3.

My all time favourite BMW and the truest M Car ever made ❤❤❤

Trev's narration always heightens the epic nature of every classic motoring icon covered in every YouTube video he's in! All his videos are engaging, informative and as heart-warming as can be. 😎

One of my closest friends is a die-hard E30 M3 fan. Guess I gotta live up to the promise of gifting him it for his 40th Birthday💯

I got to drive one on the Autobahn back in the 90s and all I can remember is how fast and nimble it was. My buddy bought it off another soldier and then he sold it to another soldier. He's kicking himself in the ass now for selling that car.

Count myself amongst the few motoring blessed. Have owned my E30 M3 Evo2 since new.

That's why the E30 M3 is my only favorite BMW I ever loved it because of racing history.

I had the chance to buy a 1987 M3 for $25k 4 years ago, I had the money but we where saving for a house, all it needed was a paint job, the biggest mistake I ever made was not to buy it.

[v.s.]

From the ultimate driving machine to the ultimate splurge machine!
What happend to the M-division?

Lovely video, but "it made other sports cars seem ordinary" and "set standards that others could only dream of achieving" might be a bit too much, there was after all another lovely car named the Lancia Delta back in that time that launched to the public 3 years earlier than the M3.
Now, this might be a bit my love and perhaps fan boying over Lancia that just rubbed me a bit off the wrong way, so it would be interesting to know what your thoughts on this are.
Specially when considering how it's apparently quite common for Delta HF Integral owners to ALSO own an M3...

Bmw would be great if they stop using alot plastic where aluminum should be under the hoods .

[Matekmatic]

Kids now:Supra better
Real carguy:Bmw e30 m3!
