Description
Attention all BMW M collectors, investors and enthusiasts!
1997 BMW E36 M3 Sport Evolution finished in iconic Estoril Blue
What is it?
Introduced as the successor to the widely adored E30 M3, the E36 M3 Sport Evolution was and still is regarded as one of the best sports cars of the 1990s and was awarded Best-Handling Car by Car and Driver magazine in 1997. The E36 M3 Sport Evolution was destined to become a classic from the start.
What’s It got?
The factory specification on this car was the perfect choice, non sunroof, Estoril Blue paintwork, full grey Nappa leather interior featuring the excellent ‘Vader’ seats, complete with Motorsport trim, polished staggered ‘type 24’ alloys shod with Goodyear eagle F1 tyres and limited slip differential.
How does it drive?
As with all M cars, it doesn’t disappoint. At the time, the 321 bhp motor made the M3 Evolution BMW's fastest ever accelerating car, a dominion usually reserved for the flagship M5. In their road test, Autocar managed to record a 0-60 mph time of 5. 3s and an impressive 12. 2s 0-100mph time - dusting all rivals and even beating their recorded results for a Porsche 911 Carrera (993) by over a second.
Having a six speed gearbox improves the usability, allowing for effortless high speed cruising when combined with the superb Vader seats and electronic climate control, as opposed to the knobs and switches in the standard model,
Why this one?
Originality is king, having formed part of a private collection of modern classics for the last 19 years. The paintwork is all original, which is increasingly hard to find, the interior is superb, the history file shows 21 service stamps which when combined with a warranted 80, 000 miles makes for a bone fide collectible car. The owner’s book pack, service book, spare wheel, toolkit, first aid kit, and glovebox-mounted torch are all present and correct.
