For reference BMW published times:
X3M Base 0-60 time is 4.1 with 8sp auto
X3M Comp 0-60 time is 4.0 with 8sp auto
and
2020 M4 coupe 0-60 time is 4.1 with DCT and RWD (has 425hp)
So based on the above, G80 M3 Pure (RWD 6MT) only gains a few tenths on the X3M at most. Maybe 3.8 seconds? No way this is a 3.1 second car.
Remember, I'm talking BMW's published time which is always a couple tenths too conservative, but still not 3.1.

It's worth noting Car & Driver officially clocked the X4MC 0-60 mph in 3.3 sec and 1/4 mile in 11.6 sec @ 119 mph. Given the added weight and SUV aerodynamics I would expect the M3/M4 in most trims to meet or eclipse these times.
