Prior to the SEMA Show getting underway in Las
Vegas, Nevada, BMW has lifted the veil on the 2018 M3 30 Years American
Edition, a one-off designed to celebrate the M3’s ongoing 30th anniversary in
the United States.
Designed by BMW Group Designworks and built through
BMW Individual, the one-off will be available for sale at the conclusion of the
show. Thanks to a host of bespoke touches and custom parts, it is unlike any
other M3.
The M3 30 Years American Edition started out life as
an M3 Competition Package but has now been painted in Frozen Red II Metallic.
Complementing the paint are one-off M Performance Golden alloy wheels, red,
white and blue accents, and a carbon fiber reinforced plastic roof.
There are a host of other parts that make the car
stand out. Chief among these are adjustable M Performance Sports suspension, a
carbon fiber rear wing, and a lightweight M Performance exhaust system with
titanium silencers. The interior hasn’t been left untouched either.
Inside, BMW Individual has bathed the various
surfaces in red, white and blue Merino leather. Additionally, the one-off has
special 30th Anniversary graphics on the headrest, decorative trim and rear
sun-shade. There’s also Alcantara and carbon fiber accents throughout,
complemented by an M Performance shift knob and contrast stitching.
