RDSPORT BREATHES MORE FIRE INTO BMW M3



    The name RDSport doesn’t ring as many bells as a name such as AC Schnitzer for example, but they’ve been in the BMW tuning game for over 25 years. Now they’ve taken a new M3 and made something more spectacular out of it. It’s called the RS46.

    By increasing the capacity of the V8 from 4.0-litre to 4.6-litre, RDSport managed to increase power from the paltry 309kW up to 391kW. Torque is now 556Nm. They didn’t say what kind of performance can be expected but a close power example would be the Porsche 911 GT2 which goes from 0 – 100km/h in 3.7 seconds.

    The car has also been lowered by 30mm at the front and 25mm at the rear. Some kit includes things like a carbon/Kevlar RDSport front bumper and a carbon fibre meshed rear diffuser.
