the specs that is being sold to me is a 2.3 model 1988 (coupe) that generates bhp 200 at 6,750rpm and 177 lb ft of torque at 4,750rpm. some say that such specs was produced from 1986 to 1989.

i was also informed that bmw also released an E30 M3 with a 2.5 engine with higher performance ratings in both bhp and torque.

peeps, when was this model released (i.e., what year models) ?

B]are these 2.5's also available here in the Philippines? what is their estimated price range?[/B]

i'll use this info to negotiate a better price with the seller.
