The standard 2025 BMW M3 is the enthusiast's choice in the G80 lineup, the only version still offered with a row-your-own six-speed manual and rear-wheel drive. Its 3.0-liter S58 twin-turbo inline-six makes 473 hp and 406 lb-ft, routed through a clutch pedal rather than the eight-speed automatic that the Competition and xDrive cars require. BMW quotes 0-60 mph in 4.1 seconds, with top speed rising to 180 mph when the M Driver's Package is fitted. It is slower on paper than the all-wheel-drive Competition, but it is the configuration that keeps the classic M3 formula alive.
