However, you can finally park one on your toy shelf for a fraction of the price. BMW and Lego are teaming up to celebrate four decades of the homologation special with a new Speed Champions set honoring the iconic touring sports sedan.<\/p>\n<p>Given the E30\u2019s boxy proportions, it probably wasn\u2019t that hard to turn the original M3 into a Lego set. All jokes aside, the miniature M car measures 17 centimeters (6.7 inches) long, 7 centimeters (2.7 inches) wide, and 4 centimeters (1.5 inches) tall. You\u2019ll have to assemble 358 pieces to complete the build, which also comes with functional wheels. For extra effect, a tiny driver is wearing a BMW M-branded T-shirt.<\/p>\n<p>You can look up the brick-shaped M3 E30 set online by its \u201c77263\u201d product code. It\u2019s already available to preorder before it reaches physical BMW dealers and Lego stores on August 1. It costs \u20ac27.99 and is probably worth every eurocent. From that date forward, a life-size version of the driver minifigure\u2019s T-shirt will also go on sale.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BMW-M3-E30-Lego-set-10.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-513776\" title=\"BMW M3 E30 LEGO SET 10\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BMW-M3-E30-Lego-set-10-830x554.jpg\" alt=\"BMW M3 E30 LEGO SET 10\" width=\"830\" height=\"554\"  \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>BMW Converted An Actual M3 E30 To Match The Lego Set<\/p>\n<p>Coinciding with the set\u2019s release, BMW has also converted an actual M3 E30 to match the Lego version. Design teams from both companies worked together to create the livery that adorns both the real car and its scaled-down sibling. A public presentation of the real car and its Lego counterpart is scheduled for August 1 at a special event in Berlin.<\/p>\n<p>The M3 E30 is the latest BMW to join Lego\u2019s lineup, alongside the two-in-one <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2024\/03\/04\/lego-speed-champions-bmw-m-hybrid-v8-m4-gt3\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">M4 GT3\/M Hybrid V8<\/a> racers. You can warm up with these Speed Champions sets before stepping up to the M4 GT3 EVO, a far more intricate Lego Technic build with 747 pieces.<\/p>\n<p>BMW has already celebrated the M3\u2019s anniversary with multiple 40 Jahre special editions around the world. Earlier this month, it also brought together a special lineup of M3s at the Concorso d\u2019Eleganza Villa d\u2019Este. On the shores of Lake Como in Italy, we had the opportunity to admire a couple of one-offs: an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2026\/05\/17\/bmw-m3-e30-truck-2026-photos\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">M3 E30 pickup truck<\/a> and an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2026\/05\/17\/bmw-m3-e46-touring-2026-photos\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">M3 E46 Touring<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>BMW is about to call time on the current-generation M3, but not to worry, a successor is planned. The G80 will make way for the G84 due to arrive in 2028.
