The BMW 3 Series (E30) shaped the sporty mid-size class from 1982 to 1994 and was produced over 2.3 million times. The 318i with 113 PS was the best-selling E30 model, delivering a surprisingly agile driving experience thanks to its low kerb weight. Even with four-cylinder engines, the E30 delivered a pure driving experience thanks to its low weight and precise rear-wheel-drive handling that defined the class.
