Another day, another special edition car! This time BMW is releasing a special edition M3 Coupe called the BMW Frozen Black Edition M3 Coupe, the car will only be available in the North American market and is limited to 20 units at a price of $79,650 (plus $850 for delivery). Quite a hefty price for an M3 if you ask me, that’s about a $21,000 premium over a “regular” BMW M3 Coupe.
So what do you get for spending $80k on a coupe? In addition to optional packages like the convenience and premium packages, you get flat black exterior paint with gloss black 19” GTS wheels. The front kidney grill, side vents, and the exhaust tips are also finished in gloss black. Other upgrades include red brake callipers, carbon fiber interior pieces, and black leather interior with red contrasting stitching, sport mapping for the DSC/EDC, and a 10 mm lower suspension.
The BMW Frozen Black Edition M3 Coupe is powered by a 4.0 liter 8-cylinder engine that produces 414 horsepower sent to the rear wheels via a BMW M Double Clutch Transmission (M DCT) which improves the 0 – 60 mph time to 4.5 seconds from 4.7 seconds.
Only 19 of the BMW Frozen Black Edition M3 Coupes will be available for pre-order starting June 16, 2011 and will be delivered in late June and early July. The last car will be kept by BMW of North America and may become available for sale at a later time.
