The M3 racing sports cars have been produced since 1985 at the Motorsport GmbH plants, which are BMW’s tuning facilities. In its present edition, the M3 Coupe was presented in Geneva in 2000, and the M3 Cabrio in Detroit, 2001. Apart from the sporty styling and equipment, the heart of the vehicle is still the 6-cylinder, 3.2-liter unit of 343 hp, the top achievement of BMW engineers.
