This 1989 BMW M3 is a European-market non-sunroof example that was imported to the US from Spain by the seller in 2020. The car is finished in Diamond Black Metallic over Anthracite Uberkaro cloth upholstery and is powered by a 2.3-liter inline-four paired with a dogleg five-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Equipment includes 15″ wheels, Bilstein shocks, sport seats, air conditioning, an onboard computer, and a factory cassette stereo. Service carried out in anticipation of the sale included resealing the transmission and differential along with replacement of the radiator, water pump, fan, ignition system, valve cover gasket, and fluids.
The E30 M3 featured flared fenders along with a rear spoiler and revised front and rear bumpers. This example is finished in Diamond Black Metallic and was optioned without a sunroof. The seller states that the hood, bumpers, and trunk lid were refinished under previous ownership.
Factory 15″ alloy wheels wear 205/55 Dunlop SP Sport FastResponse tires. Bilstein shocks have been added, and the seller states that the brakes were recently replaced.
The interior is finished in Anthracite Uberkaro cloth with a contrasting black dashboard, center console, and door trim. Amenities include air conditioning, a trip computer, floor mats, power aLessories, and a factory cassette stereo.
A three-spoke M-Tech I steering wheel frames a 260-km/h speedometer, a tachometer, and gauges for fuel level, oil temperature, and coolant temperature. The six-digit odometer shows 87k kilometers (~54k miles).
The 2.3-liter S14 inline-four was factory rated at 200 horsepower and 176 lb-ft of torque, which is sent to the rear wheels through a dogleg five-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Service carried out in anticipation of the sale reportedly consisted of powder coating the valve cover and resealing the transmission and differential as well as replacing the radiator, water pump, fan, valve cover gasket, spark plugs, distributor cap and rotor, ignition wires, and fluids.
A replacement muffler has been fitted.
