Motoring: BMW M3 Goes Hardcore [rs-style baby]

My respect for the BMW M3 knows no bounds. In fact, if money were no object and I could have only one car with which to live with for the rest of my life, I'll pick the M3.

But the new M3 GTS is a completely different animal. Previously, the stock M3 would allow you to send your children comfortably to school and then allow you to drive home like a lunatic.

But you can't do that now in the M3 GTS because there are no rear seats. There's no air-conditioning too. What it has, however, is a bigger 4.4-liter V8, bigger brakes, aerodynamic add-ons, a roll-cage and a fire extinguisher, in case things get too hot.

This is a M3 that has gone bonkers and prices begin at €115,000, which is more than double the price of a standard M3, so you'll have to be equally out of your mind to buy one.
