BMW M3 Darth Maul Project

Canadian tuner MWDesign have begun a tuning programme for the BMW M3 Coupe (E92) which they have codenamed Darth Maul, presumably from the Star Wars Episode One baddie. Currently the programme is in stage 1. For now only a few pieces of kit have been installed in Jerez Black, the colour of the exterior. For starters there is an Amuse Ericsson front bumper with custom orange highlights.

A rear diffuser made from carbon fiber rounds off the major exterior changes. The black 20-inch rims with orange-accented centre caps are wrapped in 245/30/20 front tyres and 285/25/20 rubber at the rear. Interior details are rare but we are told that Darth Maul comes with a Fox Red interior trim.

The BMW M3, of any generation, is undoubtedly one of the most tuned sports cars of our time. The current car was launched in 2007 with a 4.0-litre V8 engine replacing the old 3.2-litre straight six. Despite the 800cc gain the new engine is 15kg lighter. Maximum power was increased from 343hp (252kW) to 420hp (309kW). Stay tuned for stage 2 of Darth Maul.

Vorsteiner Dry Carbon Aero Kit for BMW M3 Sedan

Vorsteiner has released a new dry carbon aero kit for the 2008 BMW M3 E90 Sedan, a model that was in the market only for a few months, as BWW replaced it shortly after its market introduction in early 2008 with the facelifted 2009 BMW MY M3 sedan.

BMW M3 after crash – Video

The event in the video was shot on the Algarve track on a very unfortunate day for a BMW M3. The more or less inexperienced driver of this BMW M3 looses control of its car in a curve, hits the dirt, and then the side of the track. Luckily, after the crash, the BMW M3 doesn't look bad at all. We guess the driver than thought: "Damn it! I've got to do something about it!". He slammed the gas pedal while still in the dirt and hit the underside of the car as hard as he could against the tarmac. If the BMW M3 wasn't hurt in the crash, after this little trick, judging from the horrible noise, it's definitely scrap material.

IdingPower BMW M3 E92

The Japanese tuners from IdingPower have released their upgrade package for the new BMW M3 E92. The IdingPower BMW M3 E92 immediately captures all the attention with the oversized rear wing, and although the BMW M3 could use some extra downforce on the rear axle, we think this is a bit too much. Even for a drag strip.

The rest of the body kit, including the front spoiler and the new rims, looks pretty decent. The IdingPower BMW M3 E92 also comes with suspension and brakes upgrades and a new exhaust system.
