All 67 of the BMW M3 CRT sedans (carbon racing technology) are sold out.
The 444 bhp (450 hp) beast looks sick!

Autoexpress article:
BMW M3 CRT review | Auto Express (http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/bmw/3-series/62132/bmw-m3-crt)

This saloon-only M3 comes with a carbon-fibre bonnet, rear spoiler and front airdam, along with some carbon-fibre shells for the front seats. The result is a 45kg weight reduction from the standard M3 saloon.

The Frozen Polar silver paint is complemented by Melbourne Red wing vents and black 19-inch alloys, while the interior is finished in red leather and Alcantara.

But what makes the CRT really special is found underneath the bonnet. It uses the same 4.4-litre V8 engine that powers the M3 GTS, which produces 444bhp and is fitted with a double-clutch M-DCT seven-speed gearbox.

Beautiful.

Had the privilege to drive a 2012 M3 coupe a while back.... It definitely felt like a true M car. Unfortunately BMW seems to going away from that.

The E46 M3 was also a blast to drive, haven't had the opportunity to drive an E30 M3, but that seems like a far away dream now haha.
