History

The BMW M3 was introduced in 1986 to homologate the competition version of the 3 Series in the German Touring Car Championship. Over the generations, it evolved from a four-cylinder engine to six-cylinder engines, and then to a V8 for the E92 generation in 2007. This evolution allowed for increased performance while maintaining the balance between sportiness and comfort.
