Last week, BMW unveiled some teaser images with some of its high-end models from the M lineup, which would be displayed at the 2016 SEMA show with more M goodies, and now, the carmaker has already unveiled its gorgeous models, with the main highlight on the M3 and M4`s new carbon aero kit, and racing liveries for models within the 2- and the 3-Series.

As we can depict from the photo gallery below, the BMW M3 and M4 are displayed at the 2016 SEMA show wearing a carbon aero kit, with the main highlights on the cars` massive carbon fiber rear wing, carbon side skirts, front wings, support brackets as well as the M racing stripes, for enhanced aggressive look.

The new M Performance kit is complemented with the one-off 19-inch and 20-inch M alloy wheels, finished in dark, front and rear respectively, and wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires. Besides the M3 and M4, the wheels can also be ordered on the M2 Coupe.

Both models are also equipped with improved mechanics, such as the new race red coilover suspension system with adjustable M Performance dampers and springs, which lower the cars` ride height by 5mm to 20mm, using a spring plate.

The M Performance Package is also present on the BMW 2 Series Coupe or 3 Series Sedan, both now tweaking the black M Performance Front Splitter attachment, Carbon exterior mirror caps, M Performance wheels and tailpipes, as well as the M Performance carbon engine cover.

On the other hand, the 340i and 440i from the 3- and 4-Series, respectively, received the same special treatment, both versions now fitting the M Performance Power and Sound kit, consisting of a higher-flowing exhaust system with integrated bi-modal valve control which control the cars` engine by using the Sport and Sport Plus driving modes. This means that the power has been raised to 355 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque. The sprint from 0 to 100 km/h is done in 5.1 seconds, in the 340i version.

The F10 5 Series Sedan and some SUVs from the X lineup – including the X5 and X6 – are also tweaked with the new Remote Engine Start function, which automatically activates by pushing the “lock” button on the key three times, and allowing different functions, like heating or cooling down the cabin or opening the vehicle from the outside. Also, the 740e xDrive from the 7 Series is also highlighted by the BMW Individual Frozen Black Metallic with M Performance Parts at the exterior as well as inside the cabin.

The post 2016 SEMA Show: BMW Ms Revealed with Standout M Performance Parts appeared first on BMWCoop | BMW Blog, BMW News, BMW Reviews.

Not only BMW used the 2016 SEMA Show as a good opportunity to display an interesting M fleet, all tweaked with M Performance Parts, the show also attracting BMW tuners to display their custom-built models.

It is also the case of iND Distribution tuning company, which has also presented two exquisite models – a bespoke BMW M2 Coupe and a standout BMW M4.

As you can recall, the BMW M4 by iND was previously revealed a couple of months ago as a celebration of the tuner`s 10 years of collaboration with BMW, while the M2 was built following the same philosophy of exceptionally well-built exquisite models.

Judging by the media gallery below, we are dealing here a heavily-modified M2, coming with a host of visuals, like yellow tinted headlights, carbon fiber splitter, rear diffuser and rear wing, complemented with the eleven-spoke alloy wheels and the M livery. As for the new mechanics, the new M2 comes with updated Brembo brakes, exhaust system or KW suspension system.

On the other hand, the BMW M4 by iND Distribution is also highlighted by rather the same aero parts, including carbon fiber front and rear bumpers and new splitter, fixed rear wing, adding one off aftermarket alloy wheels, which increase their aggressive look. The new kit looks smashing with the car`s shade if purple, which replaces the Yas Marina exterior wrap. Inside, the model also got a full roll cage and other sport features.

The mechanical bits couldn’t have missed as well, the high-end M models being equipped with updated Brembo brakes with calipers and discs, KW coilover suspension and so on. The gorgeous M2 and M4 can be admired in the media gallery below.

The post 2016 SEMA Show: Bespoke BMW M2 & M4 Break Cover appeared first on BMWCoop | BMW Blog, BMW News, BMW Reviews.

We have covered a few stories with different carmakers preparing their special rides for the upcoming 2016 SEMA show, taking place in Las Vegas starting the 1st of November, and it was just a matter of time until we would hear good news from BMW.

And yes, the German based carmaker has recently let us know, through some teasers images, that it will arrive in style at the show with some M models, tweaking M Performance Parts and new features inside.

One particular model that we have anticipated for a show-off in Las Vegas is the one-and-only BMW M3, the model now coming with a standout styling, highlighted by a prominent carbon fiber front end and rear, adding carbon rear wing, and the same composite around the diffuser. Other important characteristics refer to custom exhaust pipes.

Inside, the cabin also sports carbon fiber on the gear shifter and around the iDrive controller, handbrake and more.

According to recent reports, there might also be a second M3 coming with the same carbon fiber, with the main highlights on the rear spoiler; but, unfortunately, the teasers only reveal the rear end, which might also belong to a standard 3 Series and not another M3.

The BMW 7 Series could not have missed the show, the carmaker preparing the model with some unique features that would differentiate it from the standard car. We are looking here at black kidney grilles, black diffuser and panel blades, carbon fiber mirror caps, M Performance decals, as well as the 21-inch alloy wheels. We should also expect some customized models from Alpina as well.
