I think they remove the speed limiter and you get 19" wheels with cup tires. Don't know how much the option costs.

better tires, topspeed limiter 280km/h and a driving (BMW fahrer driving lessons) by BMW.

You can get similar package for your M5 and M6 but topspeed raised to 305km/h.

Re: Nurnburgring laptime for M3 V8 - 8.03 min

Very impressive time that!! Whoever had any doubt that this new M3 keeps pushing the boundaries, keeps raising the bar, and keeps getting better and better is dillusional.

Seems like within a few years BMW's shifted its focus away from the horsepower battle and onto the 'Ring laptimes battle.

Could someone (more specifically Just_Me) be able to post other cars which are in the 8.00-8.06min mark around the 'Ring.. and also what the E46 M3 CSL's time was?

Also, just quickly, how does this new M3's power-to-weight ratio stack up against the previous M3 ?

Re: Nurnburgring laptime for M3 V8 - 8.03 min

Just realised the M3 is faster than the Audi R8. Imagine if the car has unlimited top speed, the lap time will be even quicker. Does the R8 has a speed limiter as well?

M3 is faster than R8!

Ha! Haha. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

The new M3 is faster than a quattro, two person, mid engine Audi....

And Audi only sells the R8 min like 20% of the dealerships because the car is so 'special'. Hahahahah again!

Good job BMW. But I didn't expect otherwise clearly.
