A true rarity among M3s
If owning a BMW E30 M3 is already exclusive, the Johnny Cecotto Edition takes rarity to another level. With only 480 units produced between April 1989 and December 1990, it remains one of the most desired and powerful versions of the first-series M3.
This example shows 79,135 miles, has been meticulously preserved, and retains its original essence — making it both collectible and perfectly usable on a daily basis.
Built to celebrate a racing hero
The Johnny Cecotto Edition was created to honor the victories of BMW’s official driver Johnny Cecotto in the Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft (DTM).
Unveiled in 1985 at the Frankfurt Motor Show, the E30 M3 was the Motorsport-developed version of the 3 Series. Its S14 2.3-liter, twin-cam, 16-valve engine was a compact yet powerful evolution of the legendary M10 block, delivering 200 HP at 6,750 rpm in standard form — and 215 HP in the Cecotto Edition, thanks to factory upgrades.
An Interior Built for Drivers
Inside, the cabin reflects pure Motorsport intent, featuring sports seats upholstered in anthracite-silver M-Technic fabric with Bison leather bolsters, along with optional Nappa leather finishes in black or silver.
Exclusive details include the Johnny Cecotto signature plaque with individual production number, M driver’s footrest, illuminated gear knob, on-board computer, and carefully selected trim elements that reinforce its driver-focused character.
Full Details & Originality
Powered by the 2.3-liter S14 engine producing 215 HP, this example remains highly original and fully preserved, striking a rare balance between collectability and usability. Ready for daily use and long-term enjoyment, this particular E30 M3 Johnny Cecotto Edition is considered even rarer than the M3 Evolution, reinforcing its status as one of the most desirable M3s ever built.
Performance Through Balance
0–100 km/h in approximately 6.7 seconds. Performance is delivered through balance and response rather than brute force.
Performance is not defined by numbers alone, but by the harmony between engine, chassis, and driver. The naturally aspirated S14, rear wheel drive layout, and finely tuned suspension create a driving experience that rewards precision and confidence, delivering performance that feels alive, connected, and deeply engaging exactly as BMW Motorsport intended.
