2014 BMW M3 F30 |
BMW presented the regular versions of its new 3 sedan, codenamed F30, with the M Sport Package models giving us a taste of what to expect from the golden-boy of the series.On the outside, the M3 will gain a more aggressive though somewhat understated look though several unique styling cues.
These include the beefed up wheel arches that house larger alloy wheels and brake sets, prominent side skirts, a different front bumper with enlarged air vents, a reworked rear bumper incorporating a diffuser and M's traditional quad tail pipes plus a very discrete boot spoiler.
The power dome on the hood, however, may be a thing of the past as it is absent from all prototypes of the M3 sedan that we've seen up until now.
BMW is keeping its cards close to its chest when it comes to the new M3's powertrain, but most reports tend to agree that the fifth generation will introduce a new 3.0-liter inline-six with either two or perhaps even three turbochargers generating somewhere around 450-ponies.
A 6-gear manual or an optional seven-speed dual clutch transmission will transfer all those horses to the rear axle.
