Images and details have surfaced of the
updated BMW M3. This latest M3 is technically the
second facelift version for the sports sedan after it was initially updated in
2015 with a set of new taillights.
The only
obvious exterior changes come at the front end with tweaked headlights and LED
light bars connecting the lights to the kidney grille.
Other updates noted by the crew at BMW Blog
is that the illuminated M3 logo on the driver’s and passenger seat have been
discreetly updated.
The tweaked M3’s
twin-turbo 3.0-liter straight-six engine remains unmodified. That means it
continues to pump out 425 hp and can accelerate from 100 km/h in 4.3
seconds with the available six-speed manual transmission. An optional
seven-speed dual clutch is also offered, dropping the sprint time down to 4.1
seconds.
The updated BMW M3 will arrive in the U.S. in July
as a 2018 model.
