1997 BMW M3

As a 1997 Euro car, this M3 is what is known as an Evolution - this means that instead of the 3.0-liter inline-6, displacement increased to 3.2 liters, while the transmission gained a gear, moving from 5 to 6 speeds. Being the legendary Euro-spec M3, this cars engine is fitted with 6 throttle bodies and is well known for being far more powerful than the US-spec variant. In Evolution form, the S50 produces 316 horsepower at 7,400 RPM and 258 lb-ft of torque at 3,250 RPM. 0-60 mph happens in less than 5.5 seconds and the top speed is nearly 160 mph flat out. âThe E36 M3 has earned its place as a bonafide classic, and the European variants are particularly special. If you want an M3 that absolutely nobody else has and will be the star of any BMW gathering, this car is impossible to beat. With its stunning Atlantis Metallic paint and matching interior finish, this M3 is likely a one-of-one and is presented in outstanding overall condition.âWe're thrilled to offer the European bridge that filled the gap between the S14 and S54 powerplant. As an establishment with years of seat time in the NA E36 M3 it's a treat to experience the familiarity of the E36 scene and feel while introducing the sensation of six individual throttles opening under your right foot all from the factory.
