Used BMW E30 automobile platform was the basis for the 1984 through 1991 BMW 3 Series entry-level luxury car / compact executive car. It was the successor of the BMW E21 in 1982 and was replaced by the BMW E36 in 1992. BMW continued to produce the cabriolet (convertible) E30 well into 1993. The Touring BMW E30 remained in production until 1994 when it was replaced by the E36 touring. The BMW M3 cabriolet car was never officially offered for sale in North America; it was offered only for the European market.The famous BMW M3 car was first introduced on the E30 platform. A widened version of used BMW E30 car front suspension and the drivetrain from the E30 325i were used in the BMW Z1 roadster.
The used BMW E30 car 3-Series was produced in four body styles, a four door saloon, a two door saloon, a five door estate (marketed as the "touring"), and a two door convertible. A Baur cabrio was also available. The 325ix was produced from 1988 to 1991, and featured all-wheel drive. It was available as a two-door (saloon) or a four-door (sedan) and as touring. The BMW M3 utilised a widened and heavily redesigned and restyled variation of the 2 door body style. The M3 shares few parts with other E30 models.
The primary distinctive feature of the BMW E30 models cars produced for the North American market in 1984-1987 are the elongated front/rear aluminum bumpers. These bumpers are commonly known as "diving boards." In 1988, the anodized aluminum bumpers were shortened by revising the cover/fillers and shortening the shocks. In 1989 the aluminum BMW E30 car bumpers were replaced with shorter body-color plastic bumpers.
