The 1997 BMW M3 (E36) (abbreviated as BMW M3 '97) is a rear-wheel drive sports car featured in Forza Motorsport 2, Forza Motorsport 3, Forza Motorsport 4, Forza Motorsport 5 and Forza Horizon 2.
Description
- "The E36 M3 may be one of the most accessible enthusiast cars ever built. With a long production life that began in 1992 and ended in 1999, the E36 is proof of the phrase, “If it’s not broke, don’t fix it.” While the model did see minor upgrades over the years, the car essentially remained the same. In total more than 70,000 units were produced, including the sedan and convertible. Under the hood was a high-revving inline six-cylinder and a five speed (in U.S. models). The E36 M3 was touted as an unassuming car that could be daily driven by the masses yet still deliver exciting performance for enthusiasts."- Forzamotorsport.net description for Forza Horizon 2[1]
