Based on the 1986 E30 3-Series, the first M3 was introduced in 2.3 L S14 engine, derived from the BMW M88-6 in-line block and the valve train and head architecture of the BMW M1 and later M6-6 cylinder in-line. One of the main causes of the production road car was to homologate M3 Touring Race Car Group, as the answer to the "2.3-16V" Mercedes-Benz W201 which was introduced in 1983. A significant feature of the M3 E30 is its racing pedigree, a campaign by BMW as well as other racing teams including Prodrive and Schnitzer Motorsport.
