BMW M3 Generation / Variant Price Guides

The BMW M3 is the definitive performance saloon. This is the car that invented the idea that a practical four-door could be genuinely exciting to drive and that has spent four decades proving the point to all nay-sayers.

Six generations have maintained the M3’s essential character: rear-wheel drive (until the G80 added xDrive as an option), a high-revving straight-six (or V8 in the E90 era), and a driving reward that no rival has consistently matched.

The Lineage

The E30 M3 began with a four-cylinder and won the World Touring Car Championship. The E36 refined the formula. The E46 achieved something close to perfection. The E90/E92 added V8 drama. The F80 returned to the straight-six with turbocharging. The G80 added xDrive all-wheel drive and the most power yet.

Buying

Every M3 generation is desirable. The E30 and E46 are the modern classics. The E92 V8 is the collector’s favourite. The F80 CS and G80 Competition are the current performance benchmarks. All require specialist maintenance, but will reward enthusiastic drivers.
