BMW 325i - E30

The BMW 325i was first introduced as a variant of the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/bmw/3-series/e30/">E30 BMW 3 Series</a>. Introduced for the 1986 model year, the 325i was powered by BMW&#39;s M20B25 engine, which was a 2.5L inline six unit. This engine produced around 170hp with power running to the rear wheels through manual or automatic transmissions. As one of the E30&#39;s most popular variants, the 325i was offered in four body styles: <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/bmw/3-series/e30/325i/coupe/">Coupe</a>, <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/bmw/3-series/e30/325i/sedan/">Sedan</a>, <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/bmw/3-series/e30/325i/convertible/">Convertible</a>, and <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/bmw/3-series/e30/325i/touring/">Touring (station wagon)</a>. For 1986, BMW took the engine from the 325i to create an all wheel drive variant known as the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/bmw/3-series/e30/325ix/">325ix</a>. As BMW introduced the next generation <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/bmw/3-series/e36/">3 Series (E36)</a>, they began to phase out production of the 325i. Coupe and Sedan versions exited production in 1991, while the Convertible was built until 1993. The final E30 325i variant to exit production was the Touring version, which ended its run in 1994. BMW kept the 325i name alive for the next generation 3 Series, with the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/bmw/3-series/e36/325i/">E36 325i</a>.

BMW 325i Touring - E30

The 325i Touring was the station wagon version of the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/bmw/3-series/e30/">E30 BMW 3 Series</a>. These station wagons were introduced in Europe in 1988, and never officially imported to North America. Power for these wagons came from BMW&#39;s M20B25 engine, which was a 2.5L inline six unit that produced around 170hp. At the time of its introduction, BMW didnt produce any station wagon variants, so the prototype for this body style was actually created by BMW employee Max Reisb&ouml;ck at his home. When BMW&#39;s chairman saw the model, the company decided to put it into production. The E30 325i Touring was the last E30 variant to be built, with production lasting until 1994.
