The S65 engine will be laid to rest this month, when the last E93 M3 Convertible will be built. This marks a sad day for BMW enthusiasts all over the world, stepping aside for the turbocharged era.
Actually, come to think of it, that's the last naturally aspirated engine made in Bavaria as the complete engine range of BMW is now turbocharged. What made this engine even more impressive was its V8 sound.
Derived from the legendary S85 engine, the 4-liter V8 was a master of wreaking havoc around town, especially with a custom exhaust. The one in the video below has one of the best the market can offer: Innotech's Performance Exhaust or iPE for short.
The system has valve control also allowing you to keep the sound under control (barely) when the situation asks for it. Open up the valves and all hell breaks loose.
This particular M3 is special for another reason too. It's wearing a Liberty Walk wide body kit, alongside some Work Wheels, Recaro Seats, M Performance steering wheel, an ESS Supercharger and StopTech brakes. All of these fade though, when the engine is up and roaring. See for yourself!
