Rich@GTBPerformance · 03-01-2012, 11:03 AM

Oh my I love santorini blue!!!

Diver · 03-01-2012, 11:06 AM

Why electronically limit the top speed of a car that has all sorts of engineering in it that is intended to improve track performance?

gunnerxq · 03-01-2012, 11:15 AM

I thought the M3 has 414 Hp

kchu221 · 03-01-2012, 11:23 AM

that blue looks sweet!

Santorini Blue:

Singletrack · 03-01-2012, 11:23 AM

That blue is awesome...small bump in price too. BMW knows how to drive sales with nice details!

420.123PS = 414.376bhp

PS is the European standard but bhp is used in the UK, so not sure where HP came from!

Santorini would definitely be my first choice!

BMWJones · 03-01-2012, 11:46 AM

We buy way more M3's in the states than the UK...what gives?

Blindside_137 · 03-01-2012, 12:04 PM

not a fan of the blue

but imola? oh myy <3

SROC3 · 03-01-2012, 12:04 PM

What i dont get is they still have NOT included the Performance Exhaust as a part of all this "limited edition" stuff. Lame.

I was thinking this too. Is it because we pay a lot less for ours than most countries?

Mr. ///M3 RD · 03-01-2012, 12:30 PM

I prefer my LMB

bavarian19 · 03-01-2012, 12:34 PM

IMOLA!

gallian93 · 03-01-2012, 12:42 PM

wow.... 25 mpg???
it's 16mpg for on a normal day... 12-13mpg on the more "not"-normal days....and this on a 6MT....
i think the best i've hear is 20mpg on here....
is there something about the limited edition?

PS....love that blue!!!!

Are you surprised? Guessing they'll do one more somewhat less special edition for the US before they end its life.

I'd really like to see some pictures in Imola though

Maybe that's exactly why BMWNA currently doesn't have any plans for limited/special editions for North America. Does any one have numbers comparing US sales vs. other regions of the M3? I could see these limited editions as a marketing scheme to get more sales or help familiarize other regions with the ///M brand.

kaiv · 03-01-2012, 01:24 PM

25mpg?!

Ferre86 · 03-01-2012, 01:27 PM

sorry but useless ..

James T. Kirk · 03-01-2012, 01:36 PM

I'd buy one.

I just hope that BMW has something a little better to offer the USA when we get our "special edition."
