The Legendary E30 aka God's Chariot

Red E3 BMW Car

E30 is the model code for the second gen BMW 3-series produced from 1982 - 1994. Car enthusiasts refer to the E30 as "God's Chariot" due to its dominance and success in the racing world.



This boxy little BMW may appear basic, and it is basic -- in the best possible ways. What makes this car so legendary?




  • It is customizable! Mod, mod, mod - the E30 has an engine compartment big enough to swap out the motor for something more powerful, if desired

  • Versatility: the E30 makes a fun Daily Driver, and with its rear wheel drive, it also makes a great Track Car

  • Longevity: the E30 can easily top 220K with its smooth, reliable engines.

  • Light & Quick: Models released after 1987, have the "i" engines that revved to 6,700 rpm; and E30s weigh well under 3,000 lbs

  • The E30 M3!!! I'll say no more.



There you have it, a brief run-down of why we love the E30!
