BMW - E30 3 Series [82-94] (1990)
Discover the timeless allure of the BMW E30 3 Series [82‑94] price landscape. 1990‑model E30s embody the iconic rear‑wheel drive heritage that attracted RWD purists. Whether you’re steering for the first time or looking to add a ‘limiting edition’ to an existing collection, the BMW E30 3 Series [82‑94] 1990 price can vary widely based on mileage, condition, and provenance. As a benchmark, a well‑maintained 1990 E30 with original parts typically sits somewhere in the €20,000 to €30,000 range on the European market—though the exact figure can swing higher in the UK or US, or lower in markets with limited demand.
So how does a used vehicle hold up today? The used BMW E30 3 Series [82‑94] price is closely tied to the same factors that influence new purchases: original build quality, part authenticity, and overall care. For collectors, early‑production numbers (e.g., Series 82/83) still command a premium, and 1993 or later models often fetch tighter, reflecting the late‑90 s refinements. Keep in mind that classic car buyers weigh the value of originality over cosmetic perfection, so many deal fairly with small cosmetic imperfections if the car’s mechanical integrity remains intact.
