The BMW M3 Touring will blow two candles off its birthday cake this June, and since the official unveiling almost two years ago, we've seen the Audi RS 4 Avant and Mercedes-AMG C 63 S E Performance Estate rival in all kinds of scenarios.
This also includes receiving a few visits from certain tuners. G-Power has its name on the list, and the renowned company has released yet another modified copy of the Munich marque's premium compact sports wagon.
Deemed the G-Power G3M Bi-Turbo, it sports a Voodoo Blue exterior with multiple add-ons that have made it look sportier. The trim around the side vents in the front bumper, the grille, apron, and hood all came from the aftermarket world, and so did the rear diffuser and skirt. G-Power's logo has replaced the BMW roundels at the front and rear.
This ride has a few black touches and several orange accents on the sides. Its new given name is displayed on the front doors. If you were wondering about the wheels, they appear to have come from the tuner's portfolio. They're bigger than the OEM proposals, have a five double-spoke design, and feature G-Power's emblem in the middle. The yellow daytime running light signature completes the updates on the outside.

Opening the door will reveal the orange and black cockpit with a few G-power touches. This BMW M3 Touring has new paddle shifters, displays the G-Power logo on the steering wheel, and sports new floor mats. Unfortunately, the tuner hasn't released more images of the cabin at the time of writing, yet we reckon it may have left its mark on other components.
A quick look on G-Power's website reveals that it has several power boosts available for the latest generation M3 (Sedan and Touring). The most extreme proposal unlocks 710 hp (720 ps/530 kW) from the model's 3.0L twin-turbocharged straight-six. If that feels a bit too much, then you should know that its mill can also be boosted to 690 hp (700 ps/515 kW), 661 hp (670 ps/493 kW), 641 hp (650 ps/478 kW), 611 hp (620 ps/456 kW), and 592 hp (600 ps/441 kW).
With no modifications whatsoever, the BMW M3 Touring needs 3.6s from zero to 62 mph (0 to 100 kph), and it will keep going up to 174 mph (280 kph). The twin-turbocharged 3.0L straight-six, which is shared with other modern-day BMW M cars, produces 503 horsepower (510 ps/375 kW) and kicks out 479 pound-foot (650 Nm) of torque.
Are you curious how much it will cost to make your M3 Touring look like this? This information and the pricing of each power boost are available on G-Power's website. Thus, you know what to do next, right?
