1995 BMW M3 E36 – German-Spec Icon | 5-Speed Manual
This 1995 BMW M3 E36 is a true performance classic, finished in Hellrot Red over black leather, and presented in solid overall condition. Originally a German-spec example, it features the sought-after 3.0L straight-six engine paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, delivering that raw, analogue M Power experience that defined a generation.
The car has received a respray in its original colour after the factory paint began to fade. The body presents well, and it retains its factory-correct 17-inch M double-spoke wheels. Inside, the cabin features the correct M sport seats with tri-colour stitching and remains largely original, though the hood lining is sagging, a common issue on E36s of this era.
With 239,281 km showing on the odometer, this M3 still runs strong, producing 210kW (286hp) from its S50B30 engine. It’s capable of sprinting from 0–100 km/h in just over 5.5 seconds, backed by rear-wheel drive and a perfectly balanced chassis that still puts smiles on drivers’ faces today.
An active inspection light is currently displayed, but the car performs well and remains a thrilling drive. These early M3s are fast becoming highly collectible, especially manual, Euro-spec examples like this.
If you know, you know, and this one’s ready for its next chapter with an enthusiast who’ll appreciate its pedigree.
