German tuner Hartge has released a brand new tuning package, targeting the 2012 BMW 3-Series, also known as the F30 3-Series. The engine this time is the award-winning 3-liter six-cylinder engine in the 335i.
Using an engine conversion, they got the mighty 445i to go from the standard 306 hp (225 kW) to 362 hp (213 kW) and 480 Nm (354 lb-ft) of torque. Of course, the same mods are available with all the other BMWs that come with this particular engine.
Of course, the tuner also offers a number of customization option, such as 20-inch lightweight alloy wheels for the F30 3-Series.
To show that the extra grunt really can shift the car better, Hartge has taken the car to the autobahn, where it finished the 80-200 km/h (50-125 mph) sprint in 15.4s, which was 3,74 seconds faster than in standard form.
Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
