@FastestLaps imo the m3 comp isnt really a coupe, as when i saw one irl, it had back doors that i could open, especially with there being handles

Hi @RickyAstle98 do you have the Sport Auto Scans (11/2016) for this car where it was compared against a Cadillac ATS V? And if so, can you provide the scans here?
Many Thanks

Nearly as fast as the Camaro z28 while having 4 doors, big boot and a good ride. The competition pack M3 should have been the M3 to begin with.

But is that price correct? 108k euros?

I dont think M models really have facelifts, Just updates, But i get it, An dyeah only 3k, 5.5k in the US, Although i dont think this should even be an option, Just put it as standard.

You know what it looks like? Like an under-cover facelift and a 3k price increase. Because nobody will want the non Comp-Pack (if it really is just 3K cheaper).

An extra 20bhp, New rims, Better setup suspension, Seats etc, For an extra £3,000 it is a bargain

I have heard this competition is a huge bargain, not for the power but for the better diff and set up, makes putting down power a lot more easily.

Definitely, This is one of the most underrated cars in terms of actual power, Since "Maybe" the first R35, Hell the Non Competition model has 490Bhp in real power as tested, This one is prolly pushing GT350 numbers, Maybe even more, Bmw is prolly the 4th biggest liars in actual output. Trying to make themselves look betta.

450 ps... what a joke. The stock M3 has easily 500 ps at crank.
