In Reply to: Lightweight M3 AutoExpress(UK report) posted by Richard Smith on February 18, 2000 at 16:35:09:

: "BMWs all new Porsche beating M3 is to be even more fearsome than first thought.Two versions of the eagerly awaited super coupe are set to find their way into showrooms-to satisfy both existing M3 owners and a new breed of hard core enthusiasts.
: The surprising news comes in response to criticisms from media and owners who condemned the outgoing model for not being as finely honed as it could of been.
: An insider from BMWs German HQ told AutoExpress "there is great enthusiasm from customers and distributers to see an even more focused version of the new M3"
: It is almost certain that the car would be a lightweight, stripped out M3 aimed purely at delivering maximum driving enjoyment. It would boast a much faster acting steering rack,a sportier exhaust, less sound proofing,plus new bucket style race seats.These measures would move the model much closer to its roots-the fantastic Mk1 M3s which were built to take BMW to victory on the international racing car scene."
