The new 2021 BMW M3 is here, and the new high-performance sedan marks some departures from past M3s. For example, it ditches the M dual-clutch gearbox for a torque-converter automatic in models so equipped (a manual-transmission base model is available), can be had with all-wheel drive, and is bigger than ever before.
Such changes continue the M3's long, unceasing march away from its light and lithe, rear-drive purist roots, but they pale in comparison to the most controversial element of the new car: its front end. The new nose is so gopping, so hard to look at, that it has seemingly distracted everyone on the internet from the rest of the spec sheet.
Speaking of specs, the 2021 BMW M3's configurator is live, including prices, so we called on the MT staff to build their own, and to maybe even find ways to tone down the new sport sedan's styling. Of course, what really matters is how the M3 drives. While we don't know that just yet, we do know our preferences for how the M3 should look and be optioned when we slide behind the wheel for the first time.
