More:

When discussing performance saloon cars, there is one particular model that all are bench-marked against; BMW's M3. The M3 has been the trendsetter since its conception in the eighties, however, the game has moved on and each year more players enter the field determined to take the crown. It's a good job then, that BMW's M department has seemingly been one step ahead, constantly honing and improving each new model to continue providing the intoxicating combination of performance and usability. 

For the latest M3 Competition (G80), it's business as usual, utilising that fabulous S58 engine with its two mono-scroll turbochargers to produce 503 bhp and - just as importantly - 479 lb-ft of torque available from a scarcely-believable 2,750 rpm all the way through to 5,500 rpm. Of course, the inline-6 powers to its 7,250rpm limit with a ferocious appetite for revs as each gear passes seamlessly through its 8-speed automatic ZF gearbox.

An interesting point to note is the internal specification of the Competition's engine; the crank, pistons and connecting rods are all produced from forged aluminium; the crank pins are spherically ground to aid the bearings to run more smoothly and the turbochargers are over-specified for the Competition's 503 bhp rating. This combination not only gives the potential for more power but ensures the engine itself is comfortably under-stressed; something unusually said when discussing a car with such performance.

This particular M3 Competition looks stunning with its Black Sapphire Metallic paintwork protected by Stealth PPF (Paint Protection Film) for a Matte finish, contrasting Kyalami Orange/Black bicolour extended Merino leather interior makes a welcome change from the more common offerings. With only 12,236 miles showing on the odometer the vehicle presents in excellent condition, having been well-cared for by its 3 owners and of impressive specification.
