The E30 M3 was the product of BMW's famed Motorsports division, wich was launched in 1986. To meet the requirements of the FIA's Group A class, 5.000 examples of a car that is to be raced have to be produced within one-year period. Cars produced in such a fashion are known as an "homologation special" because of the necessity that they be built solely to conform to class racing rules. The engines, suspension pick-up points, induction system and aerodynamic aids have to remain the same as those fitted to the street versions of the car. With the E30 M3 the fenders were slightly wider than those fitted on the normal E30 car and a rear wing was fitted on the rear trunk with a modified rear windscreen to improve aerodynamics. The "S14" engine used in the E30 was a direct descendant of the M10 Formula 1 racing engine. The M3 based on the S14 engine became the most successful challenger in touring car history. A record-breaking 1,433 racess, two German championships and one European championship were securde by the M3 from 1987-1992. Due to design of the special exhaust manifold wich leaves no space for the steering box on the right side, the E30 M3 was only produced with left-hand-drive wich is why the car has never been sold officially in most Asian countries.
