The BMW E30 succeeded the BMW E21 and was developed under the leadership of various engineers and designers, including Claus Luthe.

The year 1982, when this generation was introduced, was marked by important political events such as the Falklands War and the popularity of songs like "Eye of the Tiger" by Survivor, giving a glimpse into the time when this vehicle was born.
