DREAM SPEC BMW M3 Redemption Build

What happens when an engine lets go on a racetrack? You do a redemption build.


That's the case here. After an E90 M3's engine said goodbye, the Speed Academy team made lemonade out of lemons on the rebuild.

So if you want to follow along -- learning a bit about oil analysis and other useful things -- go ahead and watch below.

  • Jeff It was the right decision to leave this as a concept.
  • Sayahh Was the Celica Toyota's pony car?
  • Rizzle The price is the same for a manual or automatic. If you want a manual you might want to get a 2025 or 2026 (or older) because who knows if VW will offer the manual in 27. It could be deleted just like they did for the GTI and R. It is too bad you can't get a GLI in S form without the sunroof and with a cloth interior. Same basic car but many $1000s less. Yeah, the red stripes are a bit silly, but someone at VW thinks they are cool. In the good old days they would have put on racing stripes and fake louvers and called it the GLI-X.
  • ToolGuy™ I have always resented how GM did not consult me on styling choices.
