Since it is an essential product for BMW's M Division, which now has a rival to the likes of the Mercedes-AMG C 63 Estate and Audi RS 4 Avant, the M3 Touring has ended up on G-Power's radar.
Mind you, this isn't the tuner's first encounter with this model, as they have had quite a few of them so far, but it is one interesting project. Christened the G-Power G3M Touring Bi-Turbo, it features a few enhancements on the outside and has some work under the hood.
In the latter department, the tuner gave it new software, sport downpipes, and an aftermarket exhaust system. The result is 700 horsepower, which is likely metric, translating to 690 brake horsepower and 515 kilowatts. The mill's thrust is rated at 850 Nm (627 lb-ft), G-Power claims in the social media post embedded below.
Thanks to the extra work that went into the engine, this BMW M3 Touring is faster than the stock one. The new sprint time is unknown as the tuner hasn't released it, but the stock one needs 3.6 seconds to 62 mph (100 kph), en route to a 174 mph (280 kph) maximum speed. The bi-turbo 3.0-liter straight-six produces 503 hp (510 ps/375 kW) and 479 pound-feet (650 Nm) of torque.
As you can likely tell, the tuned super wagon features a few other things in addition to the power boost. The hood came from G-Power's portfolio and looks a bit more aggressive compared to the stock one. The front bumper features a couple of add-ons, and out back, it carries over unchanged, save for the added logos on the tailgate that reveal its new given name and the tuner responsible for the modifications.
We've seen those wheels on other projects signed by G-Power, so they are also part of the makeover. They have a five double-spoke design, a two-tone look, feature G-Power center caps, and spin around the yellow brake calipers. The entire car sports a white paint finish contrasted by the numerous black elements, and if it wasn't for that look-at-me hood and the added pieces at the front, it would've been even sexier, this writer thinks.
Nonetheless, it is still a great entry into the premium compact segment for superwagons that is capable of taking on some previous-generation supercars in a straight-line battle. Unfortunately, G-Power hasn't released any additional details about this project, but if you surf through their website, you will find additional goodies available for the M3 Touring, accompanied by their respective prices.
So, if you had your very own BMW M3 Touring, would this be something you'd consider doing to it? It's hard to say no to the power boost, but what about the other upgrades?
