2027 BMW iM3 and i3 Configuration and Production Schedule Details Revealed!

Configuration and production schedule details for i3 and iM3 just added to the Future BMW Models Thread.

ZA0 iM3

• In production 03/27-10/34, only one version for the time being.
• Do not expect powertrain specs here until just a few months before start of production (EV specs are not as discoverable as legacy powertrains were)
• Powertrain aside, seems to be trying to provide a familiar M experience. Inside, expect higher quality interior with regular M seats standard and buckets (built with that newly announced "natural fiber") available as an option, M design trims and seatbelts, HUD as standard; outside you will see more of that "natural fiber" as trim pieces, M specific 20" wheels (options include forged 20" or staggered 20"/21" wheels), optional carbon brakes and M headlights. Purists will be disappointed to know that the panoramic sunroof of the regular i3 will remain with no lighter weight option (though the battery down low should make center of gravity concerns irrelevant)

NA0/NA1 i3

• In production 07/26-10/34
• Model range: 20, 40, 40 xDrive, 50, 50 xDrive, M60 xDrive
• Will be made in Germany and SLP (SLP starts with one year delay).
• 07/26: starts with a single European model
• 11/26: adds another European model and two US models
• 07/23: adds M60 xDrive for all markets
• No major news on the packaging front, your typical 3 series car, the notable things are the availability of multifunction seats you previously could only get in a 5er or higher, more Iconic Glow exterior, standard panoramic glass sunroof, optional driver assistance at Highway and Highway/City levels (see the April 2025 update below), optional Security Assistant, panoramic vision with optional HUD, regular audio or optional HK. The wheels range from 19" (standard) to 21". Specific to M60: adaptive M suspension, M brakes, M steering wheel, multifunction seats, HUD, and HK audio become standard, the wheels start at 20", sport tire option unlocks higher top speed, M colored headlights available as an option, adds the usual M exterior bits.

M5 Touring vs Panamera Turbo vs RS6 Perf – Drag Race [Carwow]

Quote:

It’s time for an almighty estate showdown! We’ve got Mat in the RS6 Performance, and he’s going up against a Porsche Panamera Turbo S e-Hybrid and a BMW M5 Touring! The question is, which will come out on top? Let’s take a closer look at the stats. Starting with the Audi, it’s powered by a 4-litre twin-turbo V8 that creates 630hp and 850Nm. Power is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed auto, and the car weighs 2,075kg. As new, it cost £120,000. Then we come to the Porsche. It’s also packing a 4-litre twin-turbo V8, as well as an electric motor. Combined it creates 782hp and 1,000Nm, and it tips the scales at 2,365kg. It costs from £175,000, but the car we have here comes in at an eye-watering £195,000! Then, finally, we have the BMW. It’s packing a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 under the bonnet, as well as an electric motor. They combine to create 727hp and 1,000Nm of torque, and power is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed auto. It’s the heaviest car here, at 2,475kg, but it’s also the cheapest, with prices starting at £117,000. So will the more powerful Porsche snatch it? Or could the lighter Audi claim the win? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!

Took My M3 CS to the Track… GT3s and a Z06 Got a Taste

Finally got the M3 CS out to NJMP Lightning for the first trackday of the year and WOW. This thing is an animal and impresses me ever time!

Car is on OEM Cup 2s, and it spent the day hunting down some serious hardware: a couple 991/992 GT3s and a C8 Z06.

Not saying it’s faster in every situation, but let’s just say… they weren’t pulling away. In fact, a few ended up getting reeled in lap after lap. 👀

Temps held solid, brakes stayed strong, and the balance on this chassis is unreal for a sedan with A/C and a backseat.
This car just works on track! Confident, composed, and seriously fast.

I dropped a video on YouTube showing some of the action. GT3s in the crosshairs and the Z06 trying to hang on.

Check it out and let me know what you think!

Bimmerfest 2025 – Netherlands Edition

Saturday

It has been a couple of years since i was last at Bimmerfest in the Netherlands. As usual, i made a weekend out of it with the BMW Performance Car Club

For the first time in over 16 years we took the Dover <-> Calais ferry. Bimmerfest weekend was a Bank Holiday in the UK and the start of the school half term! To say it was gonna be busy was an understatement. Booked on the 7.15am ferry, we left early, really early!

Roads were quiet until we approached Dover port and then we proceeded to crawl to checkin; just over an hour to drive a few hundred metres.

We checked in with only 20 minutes until the ferry departed. We were pretty much the last car on the ferry.

Absolutely packed.

Saw a few other cars that may have been heading to Bimmerfest?

On the ferry, there was a queue for everything, but after a full English breakfast and a nap, it was time to leave Calais, fill up and head towards the meeting point in Germany.

We catch up with Joao, Matthias, Anthony, Vlad and head over to the karting arena! Yes, go karting. Yes, outdoor karting. Yes, on slick tyres. Yes, without overalls!

I cant remember how many laps (i think 10 qualifying and 30 race laps) we did, but jeez! We were all soaking wet.

https://gopro.com/v/46l7qKnwBZ79O

After we dried off a little, it was time to drive over to our hotel and checkin. Yes, some of us still looked like drowned rats. Some of the stares i got!

After a couple of hot showers, it was time for a well deserved beer (or two) and go for food.
