Jeremy Walton's BMW 3 Series Enthusiast's Companion is the only book
you'll ever need about BMW's most popular line. It discusses the roots
of the 3'er in the Neu Klasse and 2002, as well as renditions of the
series itself, including E21, E30, E36 and the latest E46. Various body
styles and engines are represented, as are the many variations needed
for BMW's diverse markets world-wide. Features Production history of the
3 Series American and European 3 Series race history 3 Series

Guide Buyer's tIn Prints Hundreds of informative photos Walton takes you
from the inspirational 2002 through the early phases of development of
the first of the 3 Series. Although he provides in depth coverage of the
320i that came to North America, extensive information is provided about
the 316, 320 and 323i which made such an impact in Europe. Although
Americans experienced lackluster performance from their Seventies 320i
models, Walton extensively delves into the many competition successes of
this and subsequent 3'ers, all of which are studied at length in their
many guises. This Enthusiast's Companion tells you how to identify the
various models and helps you to decide which engines, bodies, models and
years are best suited to your needs. Do you want the high-revving
edginess of the E30 M3, or would you be better suited by an almost
equally quick, but less peaky, E36 model 328is? Every page of every
chapter of this book is intended to help you to better understand and
enhance the enjoyment of your 3 Series BMW.
