What distinguishes an

E 30 M 3 Evolution II?

The E 30 M 3 Evolution was followed by the

E 30

M 3 Evolution II . 500 of which were built

in the Spring of 1988. (NOTE: This model is officially known

simply as the "M 3 Evolution". since BMW M considers the 505

examples of the first M 3 Evolution produced in 1987 as a slight

variation on the regular M 3 and not a separate edition in its

own right. ) Unlike the first Evolution. the E 30 M 3 Evolution II

received significant mechanical upgrades to its S 14 motor

(identifiable by unique valve covers in white with tri-color

Motorsport stripes). New pistons raised the compression to 11:1

(from 10. 5:1). the air intake was improved. the flywheel

lightened and the engine management revised. Power increased to

220 hp and 181 lb/ft of torque. both at the same rpm as the

standard non-catalyst S 14 motor. The close-ratio Getrag 5-speed

manual gearbox carried over unchanged. though the final drive

was reduced slightly from 3. 25:1 to 3. 15:1. Larger 7. 5 x 16-inch

alloy wheels with 225/45 ZR 16 tires. normally an extra-cost

option on the standard M 3. were fitted as standard to the

Evolution II. However. there were no alterations to the

suspension or brakes.

The exterior of the Evolution II can be

easily identified by its

deeper

front airdam. additional rear lip spoiler on the trunk lid and

front brake cooling ducts in place of foglights

. In addition. thinner window glass. plus a lightened

trunk lid and bumpers. reduced weight by 22 pounds. The E 30 M 3

Evolution II was offered only in three exclusive exterior

colors: Misano Red (236). Macao Blue metallic (250) and Nogaro

Silver metallic (243). The sole interior choice was Silver cloth

with matching leather bolsters. Both the front and rear seats

were fitted with the

tri-color

M lapels

(as used on the E 28 M 535 i/M 5). plus an M

foot rest and

door

sill plates with the "M 3" insiginia

were

included. Finally. a

special

dashboard plaque

denoting the specific

number of each example out of 500 was fitted to every Evolution

II. All features from the normal M 3 option list were also

offered on the M 3 Evolution II at extra cost. with the exception

of the green-tinted windshield stripe. which was standard

equipment.
