Performance BMW Magazine April 2020 Edición anterior

This month we are bringing you a selection of past, present and futuristic BMs to get your juices flowing, and we kick things off with the E90 M3 that you will find on the cover. This fearsome four-door boasts a set of velocity stacks under the bonnet that not only look awesome but also deliver a soundtrack unlike anything you’ve ever heard before. Add in the carbon roof(!), the 20s, the bucket seats and countless other upgrades and you find yourself with unquestionably one of the finest E90 M3s on the planet. Elsewhere we step back in time with a gorgeous classic E30, but this serious sleeper is hiding a serious secret under the surface, that being some 400 horses which come courtesy of a turbocharged M50 – nice. Keeping it classic we also have a stunning air-ride E34 540i Touring that ticks all the boxes and then we up the tempo with a hardcore, S50-swapped E36 that you won’t believe is static… We also have an incredible S38-powered E9 CSL racer recreation for you, Tyspeed’s full-on Pikes Peak M2 beast and, flying the flag for future motoring, an i8 that was rescued from the scrapyard and transformed into a stunning show machine. We’ve also put together a guide to arguably the ultimate BMW performance bargain, the E9x 335i, which will help you buy and mod one of these turbocharged powerhouses to perfection, and we’ve got loads more for you to enjoy besides.
