Updated September 12, 2019 The G80 M3 camouflage continues to change, this time revealing a never before seen grille slats design. These grilles do not seem very likely as the final design however, as they remain so rough around the edges with overly large spacing between slats. Despite being unlikely the production slats design, the overall grille styling continues to show large vertical kidney grilles, as confirmed by the 4 Series Coupe Concept (with which the G80 M3 and G82 M4 will share a similar grille design).

As you can see, there will be cutouts in the seatback for a quick fit harness. Updated May 13, 2019 Here is the first spied look at the G80 M3 interior. It features the new digital gauge display revealed and demoed last week in the upcoming M8.

Updated February 6, 2019 The G80 M3 drops some camouflage. However, it still does not feature certain M parts (carbon fiber roof, M mirrors, side skirts, hood bump), which we'll surely see on later prototypes. Check out how much wider those fenders are than the standard G20 3 Series! Updated October 9, 2018 The G80 M3 prototype drops some camouflage as it was spotted today at the Nurburgring. At its current testing stage, it's yet to be fitted with many of its expected M bits - carbon fiber roof, M mirrors, side skirts, hood bump. The prototype can be seen riding on Pirelli P Zero tires (285/30/20 rear). Updated March 27, 2018 The G80 M3 has finally hit the Nurburgring and the test drivers definitely weren't taking it easy on the G80 for its first time out.

Updated December 18, 2017 We have added the newest photos of the G80 M3 prototype, including the first front views, which shows how flared the fenders are.

It's a good sign we're seeing it this early. Perhaps a launch in 2020 is indeed possible.

I hope those exhaust tips are there just for the sake of it, they are really small, something I hate about M cars.
Will grab my popcorn as soon as the first video with sound comes out. Indeed front fenders are fat. Nice. I think the G20 as a whole will look very good, even more this M3. Let's see if they can work out this time around sound and grip from the get go, no CP bullshit. |

It does not start production until November 2018, so it's still nearly a year away. An official unveiling of some kind should happen near that time - in the first half of autumn of 2018.

Haven't been so excited to see a mule in years. 6MT standard is fantastic news, 2020 might be the year to upgrade
