BMW M3 with 720 HP

The latest generation BMW M3 is one of the most powerful production cars, but G-Power believes that the high-performance sedan deserves and can do more. That’s why they prepared three equipment packages that raise the engine power up to 720 hp.

The car is equipped with a new carbon kit that gives the BMW a more aggressive look. This includes a new front splitter, new side skirts, a Dynamic fixed rear wing, and many other components.

The M3 is powered by a 3.0-liter twin-turbo six-cylinder engine, which in the most powerful G3M ​​Bi-Turbo equipment package has 720 hp (529 kW) and 627 lb-ft (850 Nm) of torque. All this was achieved thanks to new software, a new exhaust system, hardware improvements and an improved ECU unit. It is mounted on a set of 20 and 21 inch (Hurricane RR and Hurricane RS) rims wrapped in 285/30 R20 (front) and 295/25 R21 (rear) tires.

With the other two packages, G-Power offers power increases to 670 hp (493 kW) and 620 hp (456 kW), with the same hardware but a different ECU unit.

The interior of the base BMW M3 has been retained. There are reinforced carbon fiber seats and a 12.3-inch digital touch screen, as well as a steering wheel with buttons that allow the driver to switch to sporty driving mode.

BMW E30 M3 with V10 engine

There are many BMW models that are considered legendary, especially those from the M3 Series such as the E30. One of them was equipped by the Renner company with a V10 engine.

Renner modified the suspension and strengthened the chassis. New shock absorbers, coilovers and stabilizer were installed, safety and handling were increased, and the tuner promised that every car will have power steering, air conditioning and much more. The car is painted in Blue Silver Metallic, and in order to keep it as original as possible, Renner did not even add the recognizable front splitter. There’s also a set of 18-inch oversize wheels wrapped in Yokohama tires.

The original exterior was retained, but there were changes to the interior such as a new cluster and sound system, without too much modern technology. The seats are upholstered in black leather that covers the steering wheel, as well as most of the interior.

The BMW E30 M3 is powered by an improved 5.0-liter naturally aspirated S85 V10 engine from the 2008 BMW M5 model that now delivers 625 hp (460 kW), which is almost four times more power than the original M3. The engine has a carbon fiber cover.

The car was exhibited at the SEMA Show and attracted the attention of many, including potential buyers. When asked how much the car costs, Renner representative Ronald Norat said they would sell it for $350,000.

2023 BMW M2 has finally arrived

After a long wait and plenty of spy photos of the camouflaged car, BMW has finally unveiled the new generation 2023 BMW M2 model, which will be the last with ICE.

The BMW M2 will be powered by a twin-turbo 3.0-liter inline-6 ​​engine with 453 hp (333 kW) and 406 lb-ft (550 Nm) of torque. The same engine powers the current M4 model. Power is sent to the rear wheels via an eight-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic technology, and BMW will also offer a six-speed manual transmission as an option. It reaches 62 mph in 3.9 seconds with the automatic transmission or 4.1 if the manual transmission is used. BMW has electronically limited the top speed to 155 mph (250 km/h), but this can be increased to 177 mph (285 km/h) with the optional M Driver’s Package.

The new BMW M2 will be offered with a carbon roof, and will have the same adaptive shock absorbers as the M4. It will be mounted on 19 and 20 inch wheels wrapped in 275/35 R19 (front) and 285/30 R20 (rear) tires.

Inside, newly designed M Sport seats with illuminated M logo on the headrests will provide the driver with maximum comfort. Buyers will be able to choose the M Carbon package, which offers carbon seats that are 10.8 kilograms lighter than the standard M Sport seats. Entering the vehicle, the first thing the driver will notice is the curved display on the instrument panel, with two screens of 12.3 and 14.9 inches through which the driver can adjust various vehicle systems, such as the chassis, steering, braking and M traction control.

BMW will produce the new M2 in its facilities in Mexico and the first deliveries to customers are planned for the beginning of spring next year. For the next few years, BMW announces more powerful versions, CS and CSL.
