More and more well-known tuning companies are coming out with innovative ideas when it comes to heavily customizing extraordinary models like the ones seen from BMW`s range, and the M3 is the perfect candidate for such amazing aftermarket programs.

The model recently popped-up online wearing an exquisite wrap and a couple of aero styling components, the entire project being put together by the famous technicians from Autocouture Motoring tuning company.

The model is standing out from the crowd with the one-off Sakhir Orange body wrap which highlights the car`s every single design lines.

Besides the gorgeous colour, this particular model has also received carbon fiber components at the front and rear end, which perfectly complement the new wheels as well. The latter ones refer to the 19-inch Apex ARC-8 wheels with BMW M Performance painted front add-on spoiler.

Let`s not forget the new KW Suspension Variant 3 Coilovers, which lower the car`s ride height for increased stance and improved stability. The same suspension kit allows you to switch from the street mode to track mode whenever you feel like taking your M4 for some action way too far from the daily road traffic.

As for the performance under the hood, this lad here stays stock, meaning that the 3.0-liter inline straight-six BMW TwinPower Turbo engine is still outputting 425 horsepower and 550 Nm of torque, enough to go crazy from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.1 seconds, if hooked with the seven-speed DCT. The top speed is also limited at 250 km/h. You can find out more about the car in the media gallery below.

I have seen hundreds of BMW M3s and M4s being customized with different exotic exterior wraps from the BMW Individual catalogue, but I have to admit that the Sakhir Orange is perhaps one of the most outstanding colors. And I would definitely have it on my M3.

Recently, this exquisite F80 BMW M3 has received the visit of the Autocouture Motoring tuner, the model receiving a standout carbon fiber aero kit and the latest wheels from HRE Wheels tuner.

In the engine department, this Sakhir Orange F80 BMW M3 packs the same 3.0-liter M TwinPower Turbo inline six-cylinder engine with 431 horsepower and 500 Nm of torque, enough to deliver a sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.3 seconds, hooked to a six-speed manual transmission. However, equipped with a seven-speed MDC-T, the same sprint is done in just 4.1 seconds.

From a visual standpoint, the car`s gorgeous color perfectly matches the new aero kit and wheels. We are looking here at gloss black kidney grille inserts, matte black air intake spoilers, black side gills, carbon front spoiler, decklid spoiler and bespoke rear diffuser.

The entire aero kit comes handy with the new HRE R101 alloy wheels, finished in Brushed Aluminum and measuring 20×8.5 and 20×10.5 front and rear. The engineers have also added the new lowering springs, which lower the car`s ride height and increases its stance and aggressive look.

You can feast your eyes on the media gallery below with the Sakhir Orange F80 BMW M3 customized by Autocouture Motoring tuner! Would you have your own M3 look like this one here? Comment below!

European Auto Source California-based tuner is returning to our attention with another standout tuning program, carried out on this F80 BM M3, all wrapped in the gorgeous Sakhir Orange.

The program involves the fitting of the Macht Schnell Sport Competition Springs, meant to add the M3 a more aggressive look on the road.

The new lowering kit lowers the car`s ride height, improving its stability and handling, the kit being also compatible with the Standard or the M-Adaptine Suspension system.

The lowering suspension kit involves the Macht Schnell Sport Competition Springs, including the bronze-anodized height spacers, providing the model with a greater stance.

From what we know, things remained unchanged under the hood, this Sakhir Orange F80 BMW M4 retaining the same 3.0-liter TwinPower Turbo inline flat-six engine, developing 431 horsepower and 500 Nm of torque.

Mated with a conventional six-speed manual, the coupe is capable of sprinting from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.3 seconds, but with the M-DCT gearbox, it can run the same distance in 4.1 seconds, at an electronically limited speed of 250 km/h.

Please take a look at the photo gallery released by EAS, which shows the installation process of the Macht Schnell Sport Competition lowering kit.

The Supreme Power tuning division may be well-known for their impressive upgrade tuning programs carried out on various hot rides, but this time, the aftermarket specialists have turned their attention to the F82 BMW M4, the sports car only receiving a body style kit.

The F82 BMW M4 seen in here is wrapping the rare and gorgeous Sakhir Orange finish, which fits very well with the body kit signed by the Supreme Power tuner.

The body kit consists of a lot of M Performance parts, such as the new kidney grilles, mirror caps, front spoiler, side vents, rear diffuser as well as the boot lid wings.

The overall body is also complemented by the new set of the Klassn MS03 wheels, which replace the M wheels. They finished in the Lunar Dust grey and wrapped with the Toyo R888 tires, which give the model a unique and splashing design.

The 19-inch Klassn MS03 wheels are sized 9.5-inch up front, while the rear end received the 11.5-inch wheels. The performance of this F82 BMW M4 might be also improved, but we are still not sure if the Supreme Power tuner has carried out a power boost under the hood.

With the already unveiled M3 last year, the first model to be released out of the company`s factory in Germany, headed towards Abu Dhabi, even if the model will be hitting showrooms in around three months.

We are talking about a rich person from Abu Dhabi, who has particularly asked for the first BMW M3 to complete its private car collections.

The Abu Dhabi owner seems to be pretty happy to own this BMW M3 all wrapped in Alpine White paintjob, along with a Sakhir Orange inside.

As a reminder, the BMW M3 was officially made public last year, with its M4 Coupe sibling following immediately after.

On the other hand, the BMW M3 comes shares the same engine with its sibling M4, namely a 3.0-liter twin turbocharged straight six engine but comes with a slightly difference, like 425 horsepower and 406 pound feed-of torque.

The BMW M4 Convertible, the three model in the lineup, was released just some months ago and developes 431 horsepower and 550 Nm of torque.

Transmission for the model lineup comes with a standard six-speed manual alongside a seven-speed M-DCT dual-clutch system.

A couple of days ago we talked about the stars from BMW – M3 and M4. Since we do care so much about them, the luxury car manufacturer has guested our dreams and come up with some picturesque cars in Mineral White and Azurite Black.

The twins received this very special Individual Program since their personalities are so strong and makes everybody turn his/her head on the street. Also important: the cars receive makeovers to the interior too, coming in brown and cinnamon leather colors.

There are a lot of colors that the car can be ordered with: it involves Alpine White, Black Sapphire, Sakhir Orange, Silverstone, our Mineral White and Azurite Black, Yellow, Mineral Grey and Yas Marina.

Upgrades are also visible under the hood, since both cars are receiving a new 10 kilogram lighter 3.0-liter engine, with 425 horsepower, 406 lb-ft of torque from 1,850 to 5,500 rpm.

It goes from 0 to 60 mph in 3.9 seconds if the cars come equipped with M-DCT transmission and 4.1 seconds with a standard 6-speed manual.

You can see the cars debuting at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show.
