The announcement of the fourth generation M3 was an event that sparked global excitement as the world was about to finally see the car that would succeed the legendary E46 M3, one of the most iconic M cars of all time. This meant that BMW had to come up with a way of integrating modern technology with the trademark characteristics of an M3. The result was a vehicle that was so well engineered that it would go on to be referred to as the most complete car in the world. This heavily tuned BMW M3 Competition Prior Design Widebody comes with impressive upgrades and is up for sale in The Golden State of California with just over 21,000 miles to its name.
The ultra-exclusive exterior build of this 2012 BMW M3 Competition Prior Design Widebody is thanks to the aforementioned wide body that is reported to be the only one of its kind in existence. Enveloped in a full stage 3 Pearl paint job with paint correction and graphene ceramic coating, this 2012 SEMA show car has a contrasting black chrome kidney grill and matching side markers. On that note, the car is also equipped with a blacked-out set of SSR SP1 rims that have been professionally done by Mark Perrault. The wheels are wrapped in Toyo Proxes tires reported to have 70% of tread remaining. Around the back, you are able to observe a Vorsteiner carbon fiber trunk along with a Vorsteiner molded to the prior design of the rear bumper. Peeping from under the diffuser is a Match Schnell X-pipe with 200 cell High Flow Cats and RPI - Race Rear Section Exhaust. The interior of this M3 has received its own share of special treatment as well and includes new M3 floor mats, re-stitched full black Alcantara with diamond stitching on the seats, a P3 Vent gauge that displays boost, AFR, exhaust temp, 0-60 times and much more. Apart from that, the car maintains most of its standard interior trim in reportedly good condition.
Under the hood of this car lies the iconic S65B40 engine, the very first and only V8 engine ever to power an M3. As stock, this engine was able to produce a notch over 400hp and 295lb.ft of torque, but this 2012 BMW M3 Competition Prior Design Widebody happens to be fitted with a Harrop Supercharger with a BPM sports stage one tune, pushing the number much higher. The previous owner claims preventive maintenance was done, such as rod bearing replacements and oil changes every 2k miles. Included in the sale are all the receipts and paperwork of the maintenance and upgrades of the car, along with the stock exhaust and engine manifold. Tucked away behind the wheels is an R1 Concept Forged series complete big brake kit with two-piece floating brake rotors and stainless-steel brake lines to ensure the stopping power matches the power increase. Enhancing the already spectacular handling prowess of the M3 is a set of KWV3 coil-overs with EDC delete as well as fully adjustable height and rebound.

Since the first M3 was released as part of BMW’s E30 3-Series, it has become the definitive driver’s car in the compact luxury segment. Throughout the years, every 3-Series since then has had an M3 on offer, representing the very best of what BMW can offer for this popular compact luxury car model. Today’s 2025 BMW M3 Competition xDrive is from the very latest G80 generation, and it’s the hardcore Competition variant – yes, even the M3 has a harder-than-hardcore derivative now. This lovely sports sedan is up for grabs in Gainesville with under 20,000 miles on the clock. It’s got carbon-fiber interior trim, the M Carbon Exterior Package on the outside, and more.
BMW’s 3-Series is a fine compact luxury car, embodying BMW’s spirit of creating the Ultimate Driving Machine. The default choice for many petrolheads for decades, BMW had the bright idea of pushing the envelope and creating a halo variant in the mid 1980s. Their efforts came to fruition with the E30 M3 that ran between 1986 and 1991. With its fizzy four-cylinder engine and myriad performance enhancements, the letter-and-number pairing of M3 quickly gained a reputation. Ever since then, every 3-Series has been accompanied by an M3. Engines grew from four to six to eight cylinders, and then went back to six, albeit with turbocharging. This particular 2023 BMW M3 Competition from Sunset, Texas is from the current G80 series and has just 5,000 miles on the clock. Plus it’s got the Competition Package for an even more hardcore driving experience, while retaining the family-friendliness that the 3-Series is known for.
The BMW M3 is widely regarded as one of the finest driver teaching tools ever made. It’s the high-performance derivative of BMW’s 3-Series compact car, and has been around since the first E30 M3 came around in 1986. From that time forwards, every 3-Series has had an M3 in its model mix. Today’s 2005 BMW M3 comes from the E46 era of 2000 to 2006, which is the last to have a high-revving naturally aspirated straight six under the hood – consecutive M3s used a V8 or a turbocharged six. This particular car from Burlingame, California is reportedly a track-ready build with JRZ Pro suspension, Volk Racing TE37 18-inch wheels and reportedly packs a new S54 engine with approximately 10,000 miles on it. It’s also said that the transmission is also new, and has around 3,000 miles on it.
The BMW M4 is the hot variant of BMW’s compact-class 4-Series. The 4-Series was introduced as a sportier 3-Series alternative, and in some markets, completely replaced it. Unlike the M3 though, the M4 has always been offered in two-door form, in metal-roofed coupe form, or as a drop-top convertible. Today’s 2024 BMW M4 Competition is from the second generation of the M4 and comes with a nice black canvas top that’s power operated. It’s also got a matte black vinyl wrap, the Driver Assistance Pro Package, Parking Assistance Package, Executive Package and M Compound brakes with red calipers. All that, plus a scant 14,800-mile odometer reading awaits your consideration in Atlanta, Georgia.
BMW’s XM is a full-size crossover with a plug-in hybrid powertrain, designed mainly for the US market. As such, it’s made in BMW’s Greer plant in South Carolina, and comes with a 4.4-liter V8 under the hood. If you’d like to get your hands on an XM right now, we have this 14,000-mile 2024 BMW XM for sale today. Coming to you from Austin, this vehicle comes with the M Driver’s Package, the Bowers & Wilkins Diamond Surround Sound upgrade, a stunning Sakhir Orange and Black two-tone interior, and even the charger is included with the sale. Isn’t that quite an attractive automotive package to treat yourself to?
This build goes far beyond cosmetic modification. The F31 Touring chassis was never offered in the United States as an F80 M3 wagon, making this “F81 M3 Touring Tribute” a conceptual recreation of what BMW enthusiasts have long wanted: an M3-powered long-roof. Starting life as a 328i xDrive, the car has been transformed mechanically and visually to reflect M3 Competition character, combining practicality with serious performance intent. With over 61,000 miles, it reflects a properly used and developed enthusiast project rather than a static showpiece.
