Is this the set for you?
Choose 77263 if the E30's boxy shape is what you want on your desk and you like this special livery. The graphics are a LEGO/BMW co-created anniversary design, so judge this model on that appearance rather than assuming it copies one historic race car.
A good fit for: BMW fans ages 9+ collecting a compact M3 model with its own driver.
Decide on the graphics first
LEGO and BMW created this model's unique livery for the M3's 40th anniversary. That is the important distinction for an enthusiast buying a recognizable version of a favorite car: the anniversary graphics are part of the product's identity.
The underlying car keeps the square hood, small front air intake and rear wing. If the appeal is the contrast between that compact, angular shape and the motorsport-inspired graphics, this is the right model to inspect closely.
One classic or a modern pair?
BMW M4 GT3 & BMW M Hybrid V8 Race Cars 76922 contains two cars and two driver minifigures. It answers the request for a pair of modern BMW racers. The M3 answers a narrower wish for the E30.
For a gift, identify the car the recipient recognizes rather than treating a double pack as an automatic upgrade. A favorite model can matter more than adding a second vehicle.
A desk-sized car with a driver
The 358-piece build is marked 9+ and measures over 4 cm high, 17 cm long and 7 cm wide. Its included driver can sit behind the wheel. Check a roughly 17-by-7 cm parking space, then decide whether this anniversary appearance belongs with the rest of the collection.
