Later the Sport  Evolution model production run of 600 (sometimes referred as Evolution  III)increased engine displacement to 2.5L and produced 238hp(177 kW; 241  PS).Sport Evolution models had higher <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD8">lift<span class="IL_AD_ICON"></span></span>  intake and exhaust camshafts, enlarged front fender openings and an  adjustable multi-position front splitter and rear wing.Brake cooling  ducts were installed in place of front foglights.An additional 786  convertibles were also produced.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitc9XR6JjftVjip_55DzC3X52DxzZqHwEKgayM3FHjrFtWx7QWvijIuMuoYnSZ-gQIk20HFrO61mKRvz5Yb0QzrCiW9oFfGJsqr42ciHdcAmop-AgAx2zk8HtXCm2kSIjaP1Y1QBvycvQ/s1600/2011-bmw-m3-sedan-interior-dashboard.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="bmw m3" border="0" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitc9XR6JjftVjip_55DzC3X52DxzZqHwEKgayM3FHjrFtWx7QWvijIuMuoYnSZ-gQIk20HFrO61mKRvz5Yb0QzrCiW9oFfGJsqr42ciHdcAmop-AgAx2zk8HtXCm2kSIjaP1Y1QBvycvQ/s320/2011-bmw-m3-sedan-interior-dashboard.jpg" title="BMW M3 Sedan Interior" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr align="left"><td class="tr-caption"><i>BMW M3 Sedan Interior</i></td></tr></tbody></table><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: medium;">BMW M3 Changes from the standard BMW 3-series</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Changes in the Body</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The E30 M3 differed from the  rest of the E30 line-up in many ways.

Homologation rules roughly stated that the race  version must reflect the street car aerodynamically and in engine  displacement. These include: the Evo 1, Evo 2, and Sport Evolution some  of which featured less <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD3">weight<span class="IL_AD_ICON"></span></span>,  improved aerodynamics, taller front fender arches (Sport Evolution; to  further facilitate 18-inch (460 mm) wheels in DTM), brake ducting, and  more power. Other limited-production models (based on evolution models  but featuring special paintwork and/or unique interior schemes  commemorating championship wins) include the Europa, Ravaglia, Cecotto,  and Europameister.
