    BMW To Offer “Pure” M3 With Rear-Wheel Drive and Manual

    Last year we heard that the next generation BMW M3 would be available in rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive but now a new report from Car Magazine suggests the RWD model will be the “Pure” variant of the generation.

    This would be the first time BMW would offer the Pure variant of the M3 worldwide and also the first time that the standard M3 will be available in two different variants.

    The upcoming rear-drive BMW M3, will likely have less power than the all-wheel drive model and that is simply because its manual gearbox cannot handle the same amount of torque as the ZF eight-speed automatic can.

    According to the publication, the BMW M3 Pure will even look a bit different. It will get a unique front fascia, unique wheels and some unique interior bits. This does not mean it will be the budget model but rather make it seem more special and something aimed at the purists out there.

    If this is true then BMW are doing a great thing because with horsepower output in this segment is getting to a point where all-wheel drive is necessary but there is still an option to have three pedals and all the power sent to the back for the ‘more experienced’ customer.

This indicates that the owner has a Mercedes-AMG One hypercar on order. Let's hope it makes its way to SA!

    • Aston Martin calls it the 'fastest luxury SUV in the world' and 'the supercar of SUVs' but is the DBX707 worth all this hype?

It is the fastest and most powerful SUV you can currently buy (order) in SA so there is that but the reality today is that the 707 will have to dice with the Urus, the Bentayga Speed, and the Cayenne Turbo GT for hearts, minds, and wallets.

Aston estimates 65% of DBX sales going forward will be this 697 hp (520 kW) and 900Nm variant and after driving it, this might be an underestimate. If the regular DBX is in your price range, then you can almost certainly afford a DBX707.

It can hit 100 km/h in 3.3s and go to a ridiculous 310 km/h so, of course, it is properly quick but it is just as impressive when the roads get twistier and it instils an enormous amount of confidence in the driver.

If you fancy snapping up this contender for the Super SUV king title, you are going to need at least R5m making it significantly more expensive than the Lambo and Porsche counterparts but you will be driving something a lot more rare which could be the reason you hand your money to Aston Martin.

What do you all think?
