Sport Auto’s Christian Gebhardt takes a tuned BMW M135i to the Hockenheim race track. The M135i was tuned by Versus Performance and it provides a first taste at what the tuning scene is about to get in the coming years.
The German tuner gave 384 hp to the M135i which now runs a lap time of 1:13.5 minutes at Hockenheim, only six tenths of a second slower than the 1M Coupe.
A new set of sports suspensions from KW were fitted to the car at 1,799 euros for the Variant 3 and 2,499 euros for the KW Clubsport Coilovers 2-Way.
Additional power can be added to the M135i’s six-cylinder engine via a performance module that will bring the total power to 412 horsepower. The price for the upgrade? 1,899 euros which goes together with the upgraded exhaust system that costs 4,599 euros.
Here is the video from Hockenheimring:
