Contents
History
Only sold in Italy and Portugal where cars with engines over 2000cc were heavily taxed.
Only 2540 two door and 1205 four door models were made between 11/87 and 07/90.
Technical
These models have a standard E30 body but fitted with an S14 E30 M3 engine and sport suspension. The engine is a two-litre (1990cc) unit, a stroked version ( 93,4 x 72,6 ) of the E30 M3's 2.3 S14 four cylinder, which produces 192 bhp or 141 kW at 6900 rpm. This is mated to a dogleg Getrag gearbox and taller ratio 25% limited slip diff, also from the M3.
Four door models have standard exterior, but two door models were fitted with the M-Technic II body kit, consisting of a front spoiler, side skirts and a rear spoiler. These models also had Shadowline (de-chroming) and body-coloured bumpers, mirrors and spoilers.
The interior is fitted with front sport seats, an M-Technic steering wheel, electric windows and the same dash cluster as the E30 M3, but without the red needles. An oil temperature gauge is integrated in the rev counter.
