It seems like G-Power knew all along that BMW was going to win at the 24Hours of Nurburgring because just this past weekend did BMW's M3 GT2 secure the win at the 'Ring and now three days later G-Power announces two special edition M3 Clubsport models.
The duo are dubbed the Tornado CS and GT2 S with the former being the more subdued of the two but both models gets G-Power's SK II CS supercharger system, lightened wheels, and a "Clubsport" coilover system.
In the power department, both cars crank out 600hp and 580Nm of torque, resulting in a theoretical top speed of over 320km/g with a six-speed gearbox (330 km/h with the 7-speed DCT).
The GT2 S is G Power Motorsport's first official vehicle and is a full blown racer for customers looking for a BMW version of Porsche's GT3RS and who think the M3 GTS is a bit too boring. It commands a princely sum of €139,495.
The GT2 S of course looks different than the usual M3, it sports a GT2-inspired carbon fiber body kit. The front passenger seats have been swapped with carbon buckets, the rear seats have expectedly been removed altogether. After factoring that and all the other little bits, the GT2 S is a full 150kg lighter than the standard car.
For those on a budget (a big budget that is), all it takes to transform an M3 into a Tornado CS is €10,800. That includes the supercharger setup, new intakes, titanium exhaust, installation and tuning. Visual upgrades include a trunk lip spoiler and rear diffuser with integrated running lights, inside are bucket seats inherited from the GT2 S.
