BMW M3 Limited edition

That's the good news, the bad being that BMW is only offering three of these exclusive models in Australia.

Externally the M3 gains exterior paint work that is individually matched to a tailored interior design.They also receive specially designed 19-inch forged M light alloy rims in double spoke design in either black, classic rim colour or in a special white contrasting colour with polished spokes.

Of course this edition is about performance and BMW doesn't disappoint, powering the M3 with a 4.0-litre V8, that pumps 309kWs.

Power is transmitted to the rear wheels either through the six-speed manual gearbox featured as standard or through the optional M double clutch gearbox with Drivelogic enhancing both the dynamic performance and the all round efficiency of the BMW M3 all in one.

In this case acceleration to 100 km/h comes in 4.6 seconds (six-speed manual 4.8 seconds) and average fuel consumption in the EU test cycle is 11.9 litres (six-speed manual: 12.4 litres/100 kilometres).

Pricing is yet to be announced.
