Do you know that about famous GUMBALL 3000 Rally: It all began with the BMW M3 E30!


nurburgringexplorer 11y ago
The first M3 sounds the best. You can mistake that 4 pot 16v bark.
I was filming a lot at the Nurburgring and captured the perfect example to go with this post.

This Bmw is a 1988.. not a 1986... M3\'s were not made that year. plus that car has plastic bumpers... those were not introduced till 88\'

The race is between M3 E30 2,3 88-89 model with sport evo front and rear spoiler, roll cage , exhaust, suspension, 235/40/17 tires and hood with 240ps VS S2000 with roll cage, exhaust, suspension, brakes and hood with 260ps. The M3 is faster and better handling than S2000. The truck isn't Tsukuba.

im not sure but i think they changed a track a bit but forgot which one, might have been this one


FastestLaps 16y ago
How can an E30 be faster than Ferrari F50? It wasn't a stock M3. It's just impossible.
