Vehicle Description
-Frozen Polar Silver with Melbounre Red accents, Sakhir Orange and
Black leather interior, Black carpeting, 700 MILES FROM NEW! Rare 1
of 67 total manufactured, 4.4 Liter V8, 7-speed M-DCT Automatic
gearbox, Like-new original condition throughout.
One of the rarest M automobiles produced, this M3 CRT is the sedan
version of the Europe only M3 GTS Coupe. Only 67 of the CRTs were
built world-wide opposed to only 135 GTS Coupes produced. BMW
produced the CRT (Carbon Racing Technology) using extensive carbon
fiber throughout the car. It was the carbon fiber construction used
in this car which led to BMW extending this production process to
the mass produced i3 and i8 electric/hybrid models. The CRT is 155
pounds lighter than a standard M3 sedan with a carbon fiber bonnet,
body panels and seats. For further lightness, the CRT utilizes a
Titanium exhaust system. Factory performance upgrades to the CRT
include a 4.4 Liter V8 producing 444bhp up from the standard M3s
4.0 Liter V8 with 414bhp. The increase in power and the reduction
of weight propels the CRT from 0-60 mph in just 4.3 seconds with a
top speed of 180 mph; not bad for a four door saloon car. BMW
enhanced the suspension with adjustable coil overs and installed
larger vented brakes.
Originally sold to a BMW dealer in Italy in 2012, the car was never
registered. It was then purchased by its first owner in 2016 then
its second in 2020. The M3 was sent directly to JK Technologies of
Baltimore, MD, where it was federalized for the U.S. and given a
road legal title. Over $40,000 was spent to do this certification
with all records from JK included. The M3 is all original and in
exceptional like-new condition throughout. It is complete with all
original books, tools, keys and remotes and accessories. As one of
the most hardcore and rarest BMWs ever produced, this M3 is
unbelievable to drive and ready for immediate enjoyment and
collectability.
