EVO reports:
BMW M3 Competition. That sounds good, doesn’t it? Now don’t get too excited. This isn’t the eagerly awaited M3 GTS that’s set to do battle with the Porsche 911 GT3 RS, but instead an upgrade pack you can add to the M3 Coupe that’s claimed to further sharpen the driving dynamics. The Competition Package (to give it its full name) costs £3315 on top of the M3’s £53,275 asking price.
Technical highlights?
Normally we’d plump for the phenomenal V8 engine, but if you’re any sort of car enthusiast, you’ll already know oodles about that, so instead let’s talk about the suspension changes that make the Competition what it is. As with last year’s M3 Edition, it rides 10mm lower than standard, and although the hardware is the same, the software has been re-programmed.
That basically means the stability control (claimed to be the world’s most advanced system) has been revised and that there’s a new Sport setting within the standard Electronic Damper Control (EDC) that features entirely new damper rates.
The tasty 19-inch CSL-style alloys are part of the pack as well...
