M3: a letter, a number, a history. Probably the best-known and most popular BMW M vehicle in the series has been called the BMW M1986 since 3. The fascination of motorsport has lingered on the BMW M3 series for over five generations - also with the LIGHTWEIGHT team from Sinn-Fleisbach; the BMW tuner, whose philosophy was always based on its own BMW M3 CSL. Why? Because the CSL guarantees fast lap times that are suitable for everyday use. "Many models, many variants. Always peppered with potential that we can awaken“, Says company founder and owner Marc Müller. "My team focuses exclusively on the models of the BMW brand that were built with passion and conviction for BMW," adds Marc Müller, who has meanwhile become one of the BMW tuners who act as a contact point for individually tailored customer vehicles is known.
BMW M3 G80 by LIGHTWEIGHT
The Lightweight team is also working intensively on the 6th generation of the M3, the G series. In addition to currently minor, cosmetic interventions as well Aerodynamic components is the subject Chassis development first of all. Due to the good cooperation with the brands Eibach and Bilstein Products developed, tested and implemented from the start of the project.
There are already for all variants of the new M3 / M4 Federnsätze in the program, which make the car appear visually brawny and of course also increase the driving dynamics without restricting its suitability for everyday use. The development does not stop there, however, as LIGHTWEIGHT and many of the customers take their vehicles to the racetrack. There you can use the speed and cornering dynamics of the cars, which are no longer allowed on public roads.
Driving dynamics paired with suitability for everyday use
"In our G80 M3 Competition, which we will be exhibiting at this year's motor show in Essen, we have a Prototype chassis of the Eibach brand installed. We already know the Pro Street Multi very well from the M2 and M3 / M4 of the F series. Together with Eibach, we very quickly developed a setup for the G80 / G82 that we will implement in series production“Says Marc Müller. "Driving dynamics paired with suitability for everyday use and many simple setting options inspire us and our customers“, Adds the fast Hessian.

"We have also already tested a prototype chassis for the G80 / G82 with the manufacturer Bilstein, which impressed us right from the start. It's hard to believe that you can get even more out of a very good production vehicle“Says Marc Müller. In addition to chassis components, LIGHTWEIGHT naturally also has its own Exhaust system from OPF in program. This has a EC type approval and is free of entry. Furthermore, one works together with the development partner HJS on ECE approved down pipes. After the hardware is adjusted, the topic becomes too performance increase processed. Here LIGHTWEIGHT has its own MAHA single roller test bench in-house. This can be used for both rear and all-wheel drive vehicles.
sporty spoiler sword made of PE
It's almost a trademark of LIGHTWEIGHT vehicles PE spoiler sword. A subtle component with a big impact was deliberately designed here. One would like to remind of the M3 GTS and M3 CRT with the middle part. Here, too, the component is absolutely suitable for everyday use and is not too deep. Furthermore, the material PE (polyethylene) is extremely resistant and does not shy away from enemy contact with a curb on the racetrack. For the G80 M3, which LIGHTWEIGHT also sees as a track tool is interesting, became an adjustable one Carbon rear wing developed. It gives the stern a particularly crisp appearance.
There is a special M3 for the Essen Motorshow
Now to the eye-catcher, the BMW M3 converted for the Essen Motor Show. Here you bet on one 20/21 inch wheel / tire combination with 10 × 20 and 285/30/20 "and 10,5 × 21 and 305/25/21" Michelin Pilot Sport 4S, painted in a matt gold tone. "We thought about the right color for the car for a long time and ended up with it Isle of Man Green landed with the color code C4G. And if you look at the car now, it was absolutely the right decision“, Says Marc Müller. For fast lap times, the tuner from Sinn - Fleisbach drives with smaller diameter rim combinations semi slicks.
Further products to make the M3 into a "clubsport" vehicle are already in the planning stage. The M2 / M2 Competition as well as the M3 / M4 conversions of the F series from LIGHTWEIGHT arouse a great deal of interest among sporty BMW drivers.
