M Performance Parts are an integral part of sharp Bavarians and new M3 and M4 are no exception. How can you further improve sports equipment with original parts?

A pair of new BMW sports cars leaked to the public yesterday – M3 Sedan and M4 coupe. Just a few hours later, we received the official premiere, which in addition to detailed information on technology also brought Czech awards.
Almost immediately after the regular debut of BMW vehicles, it also revealed a list of M Performance Parts, ie branded sports parts with which you can individualize your car not only in terms of design, but also in terms of driving characteristics. All accessories are created in direct cooperation with the BMW M and benefit from experience in racing circuits.

BMW, for example, punches the M Performance titanium muffler. The lightweight exhaust system with an active flap was developed especially for M models and was created on the basis of experience gained while participating in car racing. It weighs about five kilograms less than a standard exhaust and provides a sportier performance thanks to improved exhaust. Of course, there is also a more pronounced soundtrack and four titanium, ceramic-coated exhaust tailpipes, thanks to which you can’t confuse the M Performance performance with the standard.
There is also an M Performance sports chassis available, which Munich tuned on a number of racing circuits. The chassis, consisting of integrated suspension and damping units (coilover), allows to reduce the ground clearance in the range of 5 to 20 millimeters, while the recommended reduction is 10 millimeters compared to the standard “emku”. Without changing the damping settings, the driver benefits from a lower center of gravity, less body roll and higher cornering speeds.

The sports brake pads are derived directly from BMW Motorsport and provide shorter braking distances, better feedback and resistance to high temperatures. This will be appreciated especially by the owners, who like to go on a circuit with their sports novelty.
As is customary with purely sports equipment, even strong and at the same time light carbon was not spared. For example, the front splitter, rails and other aerodynamic surfaces are made of this material. From the side, the carbon M Performance attracts decorative elements on the side air vents as well as the carbon sill extensions. On the lower edge of the rear bumper, we find carbon tear-off pads and a distinctive spoiler on the boot lid. The absolute highlight of carbon M Performance parts is the rear diffuser combined with a titanium exhaust system. However, even the standard exhaust can be individualized with carbon and titanium fittings.

The footwear was not forgotten either. The default M Performance solution is the matte gray Y-spoke 963M forged wheels and 19-inch front and 20-inch combination tires. The specialty is forged M Performance Cross-spoke 1000M wheels in matt gold (or matt black). These are available exclusively through the 20-inch front and 21-inch rear M Performace Parts program.
We also did not forget the interior, which can be decorated with, for example, sill covers with carbon inserts and the colorful inscription M Performance. You can have “em” rugs on the front and back, and there are also carbon paneling and alcantara. The M Performance steering wheel can also be supplemented with carbon shift paddles with an open-pore surface to replace standard chrome-plated parts.
So, would you choose?
