The E30 was sold from 1982 through 1991 in sedan form, through 1993 in convertible form. The E30's introductory price of US$18,210
was nearly double that of the E21 just 7 years earlier, but the
availability of a six cylinder engine and 4-door body style (in 1984)
earned sales. The torquey "eta" six in the 325e produced 121 hp
(90 kW), but met the strict emission standards of the time. The E30 was
the most powerful compact BMW offered in the United States since the 2002 Tii.
The lineup was joined in 1985 by the high-output 325i and 325is. Though the engine displacement was reduced to 2.5 L, output was up to 168 hp (125 kW) as the company focused on performance rather than economy. The rev limit for the new motor was raised from 5000 rpm to 6500 rpm, as a shorter stroke was employed with the new motor.
The 325is was an upgrade from the standard 325i, as some new
features were added to the car as standard. These included the full
electrics package, BMW sports seats, black roof-liner, BMW M-technic II
body kit, BMW 14 inch BBS wheels and a Close Ratio gearbox. Other
features also found on the 325is were options, however over time, some
have been mistaken for standard features. These options include a
Limited Slip Differential (LSD), leather interior, sunroof and BMW 15
inch BBS wheels. Options differed on vehicles produced in the United
States.
An all wheel drive
version, the 325ix, joined the lineup for 1986. The four-cylinder 318
was dropped in 1985, but was brought back with a new, 1.8L DOHC motor (M42B18) for 1991.
In the end of 1987, BMW introduced the touring version of the E30.
It was very popular during its production up to 1994. It was available
with a 1.6, 1.8, 2.0 or 2.5 liter engine and also 2.4 liter turbo
diesel. The 325ix touring was equipped with 4WD.
The most powerful American BMW E30 in 1989 came in the form of the M3. It used a 192 hp (143 kW) S14 straight-4 with a 4-valve head adapted from the M88 six and Bosch fuel injection.

Also known as the "Dolphin shape." The E36 was sold from 1991 through 1999. It employed the "Z-axle" multilink suspension in the rear which had been proven in the Z1. DOHC engines were used widely across the range, with VANOS variable valve timing introduced in 1993.
The four-door E36 was sold from Autumn, 1991 but the E30 coupes were
retained until well into 1992. The E36 convertible was delayed until
1994. The hatchback 318ti Compact was introduced in 1995, was not very popular in Europe and even less successful in North America^{[citation needed]}. The BMW Compact
was identical to the regular E36 sedan from front bumper to A-Pillar.
Everything else was unique, namely its rear semi-trailing arm
suspension, based on the old E30, instead of the Z-Axle Multilink
employed in all other E36's. The Z3 and M Coupe have similar rear
suspension setups as well. The "Touring" station wagon was sold in Europe from 1995.
The 2.5 L M50B25 used in the 325i models was replaced in 1996 with the 2.8 L M52B28, creating the 328i line. A less powerful 2.5 L engine, the M52B25 was sold as 323i rather than 325i.
The 4-door 3 Series models were replaced after 1998 in the US, while the 2-door models lasted through 1999.

2002 E46 Sedan Facelift






2002 E46 Sedan Facelift






The E46 (Left) in comparison to the E90 (Right)





The E46 chassis began to replace the E36 specification for 1998.
Only the 4-door sedans were updated that year. The E36 coupé and touring models lasted one more year until the E46 replacements arrived for model year 2000. The 2.8 L cars were called 328 while 2.5 L cars got the confusing 323 name. The new M54 engines appeared for 2001; with the new 3.0 L 330 replacing the 328, BMW renamed the 2.5 L car the 325. Also in 2001, the compact 3-door version appeared on the European market, but it was replaced in 2004 by the 1 series. During the second half of 2005 the E46 sedan and touring were phased out in favour of the new E90.
The E46 coupé and convertible remained in production well into 2006.
The E46 Coupe & Convertible used a "Ci," standing for
coupe/injection, instead of just "i". The E46 all-wheel-drive (AWD)
cars used the "xi" designation to show the cars included BMW's xDrive system
