{"title":"BMW 2.8 Bavaria Parts and Accessories","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe BMW 2.8 Bavaria is the 2.8L variant of the E3 large sedan, sold as the Bavaria in North American markets from the early 1970s. Powered by the M30 inline-six, it offered smooth, refined performance in a larger body than the Neue Klasse models and has become a respected vintage BMW for collectors who prefer the understated elegance of the E3 over the more mainstream 2002.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003ePopular Upgrades\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuspension refreshes with polyurethane bushings and upgraded shock absorbers restore the Bavaria's original road-holding precision. Exhaust upgrades for the M30 2.8L engine improve both sound quality and flow, and a healthy selection of headers exists for the M30 family. Brake upgrades using performance pads and slotted rotors address the Bavaria's larger chassis weight and bring stopping performance up for modern driving conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat is the relationship between the Bavaria and the BMW 3.0S?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Bavaria and the 3.0S share the E3 platform and the M30 inline-six engine family. The Bavaria was the North American market designation for the 2.8L E3, positioned below the 3.0S in displacement and equipment level. Many mechanical parts are interchangeable between the two, giving Bavaria owners access to the broader E3 aftermarket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIs the BMW Bavaria a good daily driver today?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA well-sorted Bavaria makes a characterful vintage daily driver with room for four passengers and a smooth, long-legged cruising character from the M30 inline-six. Suspension refreshes and brake upgrades address the wear items most critical for reliable daily use, and the car's relative rarity gives it more character than the more commonly seen 2002 coupe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFind BMW 2.8 Bavaria parts in our \u003ca href=\"\/en-ca\/collections\/exhaust\"\u003eexhaust systems\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/en-ca\/collections\/suspension\"\u003esuspension upgrades\u003c\/a\u003e, and \u003ca href=\"\/en-ca\/collections\/armored-friction\"\u003ebrake upgrades\u003c\/a\u003e collections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e\n{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"CollectionPage\",\"name\":\"BMW 2.8 Bavaria Parts \u0026 Accessories\",\"description\":\"Shop BMW 2.8 Bavaria suspension, exhaust, and brake upgrades for this E3 sedan with fast shipping.\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.blackopsautoworks.com\/collections\/bmw-2-8-bavaria-parts-and-accessories\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/www.blackopsautoworks.com\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"BMW 2.8 Bavaria Parts \u0026 Accessories\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/www.blackopsautoworks.com\/collections\/bmw-2-8-bavaria-parts-and-accessories\"}]},\"potentialAction\":{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":\"https:\/\/www.blackopsautoworks.com\/search?q={search_term_string}\",\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}}\n\u003c\/script\u003e\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e\n{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"ItemList\",\"name\":\"BMW 2.8 Bavaria Parts \u0026 Accessories — Top Categories\",\"description\":\"Aftermarket parts for BMW 2.8 Bavaria\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.blackopsautoworks.com\/collections\/bmw-2-8-bavaria-parts-and-accessories\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Exhaust Systems\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.blackopsautoworks.com\/collections\/exhaust\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Suspension Upgrades\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.blackopsautoworks.com\/collections\/suspension\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":3,\"name\":\"Cold Air Intakes\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.blackopsautoworks.com\/collections\/air-intake-systems\"}]}\n\u003c\/script\u003e\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e\n{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"FAQPage\",\"mainEntity\":[{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What is the relationship between the Bavaria and the BMW 3.0S?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"The Bavaria and the 3.0S share the E3 platform and the M30 inline-six engine family.
