BMW M Division

The M Division of BMW makes some of the most advanced, best cars in the world. Their cars usually contain powerful, normally aspired engines and simple, beautiful body work. M is one of the most popular tuners around, producing bmw performance parts, bmw aftermarket parts and bmw body kits, which are integrated into specific models.

Although part of BMW, the M Division does its own thing. For example, the Z4 M Roadster has hydraulic power-assisted steering because the engineers in the M Division think th is is better than the electric power steering of the standard Z4.

They also create the M5 and M6 , with the sensational V-10 engine, which they developed rather than enlarge the 4.8 liter engine in the BMW 650i.

But the M Division also produces versions of other models, including the 1 series and 3 series. You can be sure of getting good quality bmw performance parts, bmw aftermarket parts and bmw body kits from the M Center. One of the latest models from the M Division is the Z4 M Roadster, with about 330 bhp.

The M3 has a similar power output, and like all M cars, is not easy to distinguish from the standard models. It is extremely quick, but has a docile engine and fairly good ride.

At the top end of the range are the BMW M6 and BMW M5, which are both powered by a V-10 engine developing 500 bhp. The engine drives through a seven-speed sequential gearbox.

Of course, other firms do tune BMWs, including Alpina, and there is a Z3 supercharger kit available as well. But for the best bmw performance parts and bmw body kits, the BMW M Division takes some beating. All the modifications carried out by the M Division are approved by BMW.
