    G-Power has announced their latest project based on the extremely fast BMW E92 M3 GTS. It received both styling and performance modifications and as we well know, G-Power always bets on the performance.

    The E92 M3 GTS received a full supercharger system – GTS SK II “Sporty Drive”, which boosts the engine to 650HP (478 kW) at 7,800RPM and 630Nm (467 lb-ft) of torque at 3,900RPM. This is an increase of 200HP and 190Nm. 0-100 km/h in 4.1 seconds and 0-200 km/h in 11.8 seconds. The top speed is 323 km/h (201 mph). The price for the complete G-POWER SK II „Sporty Drive“ TU supercharger system plus installation is €23,500.

    The braking system is also improved – 6-piston calipers at the front with 396 mm Ceramic-Carbon brake discs and 4-piston calipers at the rear. In addition the G-POWER ceramic braking system reduces the unsprung mass by 50%, compared to a system with steel brake discs. Accordingly the cornering and road handling is improved significantly. The price for the complete set is whopping  €26,238.

    The wheel/tire set includes G-POWER 20” SILVERSTONE CS wheels fitted with 255/30 ZR 20 on the front and 295/25 ZR 20 on the rear axle – Michelin tires. The price is €7,437.

  • Epic battle: GT3 RS 4.0 vs M3 GTS vs C63 AMG Black Series

    The Porsche is powered by a naturally aspirated flat-six with 125HP (92 kW) hp/liter. This means 500HP (368 kW) and 460Nm (339 lb-ft) of torque from the 4.0 liter six-cylinder.

    The BMW has an updated version of the M3 engine – a hi-revving 4.4 liter V8 with 450HP (331 kW) at 8300RPM and 475Nm (325 lb-ft) at 3750RPM. The engine is mated to a re-tuned 7-speed M Dual Clutch Transmission with Drivelogic. 0-100 km/h in 4.4 seconds and a top speed of 305 km/h (190 mph). The total weight is 1530kg.

    The Mercedes has a 6.2 liter V8 AMG engine with 517HP (380 kW) and 620Nm (460 lb-ft). It is coupled to an AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 7-speed sports transmission with four driving modes. 0-100 km/h in 4.2 seconds and a top speed of 300 km/h (186 mph).

  • G-Power BMW M3 GTS SK II

    G-Power has released another staggering car with BMW badge. This time the platform is the latest E92 M3 in GTS variant. This is a stripped version of the regular E92 M3 with a little bigger engine. However, the naturally aspirated hi-revving V8 has a huge potential, so G-Power added SK II “Sporty Drive” supercharger kit.

    The result is simply brutal – 635PS (467 kW) and 630Nm (465 lb-ft) of torque, instead of the factory’s 450 PS (331 kW) and 440 Nm (325 lb-ft).

    The performance date is staggering, too. 0 to 100 km/h takes 4.2 seconds, to 200 km/h in 11.9 seconds and a top speed of 323 km/h – a little over 200 miles per hour.

    The suspension of M3 GTS is already on of the best in the world, so G-Power didn’t touched it. The body kit stays untouched, too.

    The price for the pleasure is €23 500 including installation.
