From the Archive: The E46 BMW M3:
Still, we were frustrated to know that BMW sold a better, more powerful M3 elsewhere in the world. BMW said this supreme M3, with 77 more horsepower, was too pricey for the U.S. market.M3s produced from 1995 through 1999
For the new M3, based on the current 3-series two-door, BMW decided on two things: Americans were probably willing to spend a little more for the other engine, and making all M3s with the same engine would probably lower the cost enough to make everyone happy. We recently drove the new car in Jerez, Spain, and even got a chance to turn some laps at the Jerez circuit.The engine is an absolute gem.
To lighten the valvetrain, BMW used hollow camshafts and finger followers to operate the valves. BMW says finger followers offer two main advantages over conventional valve tappets: Friction is 30 percent lower with the followers, and valvetrain mass is 30 percent less.With the engine internals capable of spinning at 8000 rpm, BMW next ensured that the engine could breathe at that speed. On the intake side, six individual tubes house electronically controlled butterfly valves.
