The BMW M3 G80, under the watchful eye of the mad scientist Durk Hacker, is a roaring beast with the Competition and CS versions pushing out massive power. With its lightweight wheels, specific axle tuning, and drift analyzer, this M3 is a true driver's dream. The E30 M3, born out of a rivalry with the Mercedes-Benz 190e, set the stage for BMW's dominance in the racing world. Meanwhile, the E36 M3 had a rocky start in North America but was saved by the efforts of Bob RoR, featuring the potent S50 B30 engine.
Moving on to the E46 M3, this beauty was a sight to behold with its s54 b32 engine and the option of an SMG gearbox. The M3 GTR, made famous by EA Games, boasted a 4 L naturally aspirated V8 engine that was a force to be reckoned with on the track. As we transition to the f80 M3, we witness the end of an era with the shift to a twin-turbo inline 6 engine, marking the death of the high-revving naturally aspirated era. The M3 lineage has seen ups and downs, from financial disasters to track dominations, but one thing remains constant - the M3 is a symbol of power, performance, and precision in the world of sports cars.
