PUMA hooks up Usain Bolt with his very own E92 M3 coupe

Well, if you ever become a pro athlete make sure PUMA is your sponsor!

That's how BMW says the world record-smashing sprinter described his first experience with a BMW M3 in his native Jamaica. And now Bolt's number one sponsor - sportswear maker PUMA - is shipping him his very own black M3. The vehicle is set to arrive before Christmas in Kingston, Jamaica.

Usain Bolt always admired his uncle's BMW, never missing the chance for a ride when he was a kid. And the 22-year-old just got a chance in the driver's seat with a professional BMW instructor, driving at the vehicle's limis through winter conditions at the BMW Vehicle Test Facility in Aschheim, near Munich.

Bolt toured BMW Velt where Ian Robertson (member of the board of management of BMW AG) and Dr. Kay Segler (head of region importers, BMW Group) showed him the entire BMW portfolio. Bolt, who's keen on anything with fleet performance, was said to be particularly impressed with BMW motorcycles and the M3.--Colin Mathews

In Jamaica it should work better than the loud and non discrete F430 he tried out earlier during the week.

He looks much happier with the M3 than the F430

Would much rather have an E92 M3 over an F430. Anyday.

Why didn't they get him the M3 Covertible so he can enjoy the Carribean sun?

Nonetheless... one lucky S.O.B. he is!!
