BMW has used the SEMA show in Las Vegas to unveil some performance parts for the M3 and M4.And they"re perfect if you wish for your medium-sized M Division saloon (or coupe) to shout a little louder than normal.There"s the white and M tricolour paint scheme, for starters. On top of that, there are some decidedly unsubtle carbon additions. At the front, a sculptured spoiler juts out, while atop the bootlid there"s a fairly notable fixed rear spoiler. Together, they improve the aerodynamics (no actual stats have yet been given), though we suspect most people ticking the box might be doing so for aesthetic reasons.The alloy wheels, meanwhile, are a new M Performance" design. They measure 19 inches at the front and20 at the rear, are lighter than standard and come wearing some fairly serious Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tyres.Inside, once you"ve got over the shock of the manual gearstick protruding from the transmission tunnel of this display car, you"ll see a snazzy new steering wheel. It"s only part Alcantara, but the suede is in the correct places the quarter-to-three position you ought to be holding the wheel in while there"s a motorsport-style centre marker and some tricolor stitching.
