Last night, the M division launched a new exclusive edition M3 model. Dubbed, BMW M3 “30 Years M3”, as a tribute to the first generation of the BMW M3, the anniversary edition “30 Years M3” is painted in the exclusive exterior color Macao Blue metallic, which once celebrated its premiere in BMW’s color range as a special option for the first generation of the BMW M3.
The edition “30 Years M3” builds on the Competition Package, which is optionally available for the BMW M3 series production model. It comprises an increase in engine output by 19 hp to 450 hp.
Optimized features also include new springs, dampers and stabilizers, modified characteristic curves of the three modes Comfort, Sport and Sport+ as well as a correspondingly modified standard Active M differential on the rear axle and Dynamic Stability Control feature (DSC). Moreover, the Competition Package of the edition model includes forged 20-inch M light-alloy wheels with 666 M star spoke design and mixed tires (front: 265/30 R20, rear: 285/30 R20).
The BMW M3 “30 Years M3” with optional 7-speed M double clutch transmission sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4 seconds, which is 0.1 seconds faster than the series production model. Even with the standard 6-speed manual transmission, the car completes this sprint 0.1 seconds faster than the production model.
Compared with the BMW M3 with Competition Package, the additional cost of the anniversary model is €10,000 in Germany. Market launch is scheduled for the summer of 2016.
