New BMW M3 Packing 430HP Through Manual or Dual-Clutch Boxes

BimmerBoost  has uncovered some very exciting news today.

The BMW owners site just posted the official 2014 M3 launch images and ordering guide.

 

The early release also includes details on the two-door M4; stay tuned for an upcoming article.

For the sedan, BMW chose its most lively blue paint and dark wheels for the press shots. As always, something about a track-honed car with four doors — this M3 looks better than the M4, in my opinion.

Enjoy these high-resolution images ahead of the 2014 BMW M3 ahead of its official debut in Detroit next month.

Also included below are some interesting technical images from the M4 Technology Days event in Munich a few weeks ago.
