might be a difference between Europe and US as well
in the US, the current M3 is the 2009 model, right?
Here it's the 08 model because we have the year 08
Americans are always one year ahead in this case
the Touring btw was built until 1994 (the 95 model in the US), because only by then the e36 Touring was unveiled
here are the exact numbers:
* 2-door (11/1982 until 04/1991)
* Sedan (09/1983 until 04/1991)
* Baur Topcabriolet (02/1983 until 1991)
* Cabriolet (1986 until 1993)
* M3 Cabriolet (05/1988 until 06/1991)
* M3 (1986 until 1992)
* Touring (1987 until 1994)
* Z1 Roadster (1989 until 1991)
