* Carbon-fibre body kit reduces weight and enhances aerodynamics
* A range of engine classes producing up to 295 bhp
* Inside-vented and perforated disc brakes measuring 332 mm across and anodized aluminium front brake callipers
* Sporty interior for more racing flair

They'll definitely sell those packages to people. Hell, they'll likely sell faster than they can produce initially.

In europe, yeah. Shit, 295hp E30 M3 is a sick concept. tighten up the rear end so it can hold the road closer to that of the E36 variety and you are going to have a monster.

Does the e30 really handle any better than the e36?

I've never driven an e30 with a stock suspension, only my friend's, who had an H&R race setup. (Same suspension setup I have, but haven't installed yet)
Anyway it could easily outhandle my 328i.

One of my mechanics is an SCCA racer and instructor who's owned every M3 from e36-e46 and has been with the BMW scene for over 40 years.

He says that with the same driver an e30 and an e36 M3 will do the same track times, and the only difference is the applications which he'd use the car for.

E36 as a grocery getter.
E30 as a track car.

[Ryan Stewart]

No I was implying the rear end up need to be cleaned up from stock a bit to run with the E36.

The E36 will handle better in the same trim. Its a stiffer chassis with a mutilink rear end. It is a little heavier but in race trim is a better car.

Ahhh. Verstanden.

"Sporty interior for more racing flair"??
Wonder what they mean by that.

[delatlanta1281]

looks like a vdub to me.

[Berkut]

Mk motorsport is not a new company, they've got some good products and have been around since the 80's.
They also have M20 stuff and good quality.

looks like a vdub to me.

[jbsjunk]

Could be a IX, but the suspention don't look IX. I'll go vdub also.
