BMW M3 Competition 2016 review | snapshot
- Price From $144,615
- Seats5
- Fuel cons.8.8L/100km (combined)
What we like
- Lightest, cheapest 3 Series-based M car you can buy
- Competition upgrades give it a sharper edge
What we don't
- Still has a dark side lurking in the rear edge
- "Noisy" exhaust isn't that noisy
The $144,615 BMW M3 Competition sedan sits above its donor car, the $139,615 M3.
It also sits below the $154,615 M4 Competition, which is the mechanically identical two-door body variant of the same car.
The three-strong M3/M4 line shares the same 3.0-litre twin turbo six-cylinder engine found in the standard M cars, making 331kW and 550Nm.
A six-speed manual is a no-cost option to the standard seven-speed double-clutch gearbox.
