The vehicle was tweaked in every way to build it into one of the best racing cars out there. <strong>The engine was a naturally aspirated four-cylinder that was built to rev out. The transmission for the Euro-spec cars was a dogleg five-speed.<\/strong> Other areas of the world got the traditional H-pattern transmission.<\/p>\n<p>BMW only made 600 of these cars, and that makes them exceedingly rare, though not the rarest of the special editions out there. The car that the publication gets its hands on happens to be a single-owner vehicle. <strong>It&#8217;s a stunning example. When compared to modern cars, the E30 M3 is really quite slow, but that doesn&#8217;t make it any less of a legend, and as the presenter says in the video below, it still lives up to its reputation.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe class=\"zeen-lazy-load-base zeen-lazy-load\" title=\"BMW E30 M3 Sport Evo: The M3 Masterpieces Ep.1 | Carfection 4K\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"about:blank\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gAcSYTuzst0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><noscript><iframe title=\"BMW E30 M3 Sport Evo: The M3 Masterpieces Ep.1 | Carfection 4K\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gAcSYTuzst0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A True BMW Legend There are few cars that have a bigger fanbase than the BMW E30 M3 Sport Evo.
