BMW to release M3 Competition Pack in Geneva

Fans of performance-oriented versions of the BMW 3 Series have had plenty to celebrate lately. Recent additions to the top of the range have included the M3 GTS, while lower down we've been treated to a new, sub-M3 335i and an even more powerful 335is. Now reports indicate that a CSL-like Competition Pack is being planned for the M3 itself.
Said to incorporate a harder suspension dropped by 10mm and supplimented by new electronic dampers and new lightweight 19" alloys, the M3 Competition Pack ought to up the performance quotient. The 414-horsepower, 4-liter V8 engine will reportedly carry over unchanged, so don't expect any shavings off the stock M3's acceleration and top speed figures. But expect to see the M3 equipped with the Competition Pack to debut at the upcoming Geneva Motor Show at a £3,315 (~$5,340k) premium.
