Information

Introduced in 1983, the E30 was the successor to the popular E21 three. 

The E30 was more of an upgraded E21 than an all new car and it used some of the same engines. Major changes included improved front and rear suspension design, more modern interior design, and a deeper front spoiler. 

In Europe the touring and convertible models survived until 1993, while the coupes were discontinued in 1991, replaced by the E36.
