Rare BMW M3 CRT Lightweight Sedan E90 Selling For $300,000

Rare BMW M3 CRT Lightweight Sedan E90 Selling For $300,000

BMW M3 CRT Lightweight Sedan, CRT standing for Carbon Racing Technologies.

The CRT shares the GTS’s 4.4-liter, delivering 450 hp at a screaming 8300 rpm and 324 lb-ft of torque peaking at 3750 revs. Its crankcase is constructed out of an aluminum-silicon alloy, it has individual throttle butterflies, and its exhaust gasses exit through a sport exhaust system with a lightweight titanium muffler.

The M3 CRT has a hood that consists of two carbon-fiber sheets encasing an aramid composite honeycomb for added rigidity. As a result, it has the strength of a traditional steel hood with just a quarter of the weight. Compared to a normal M3’s aluminum piece, the weight is halved. Inside the cabin, the front bucket seats use the same process and therefore benefit from the same weight savings. The result is a car that weighs just 3483 pounds despite standard equipment that includes a dual-clutch transmission, navigation, a high-end BMW Individual audio system, and parking sensors. BMW says that, while the official weight savings is 100 pounds, if all this equipment is considered, the real savings is over 150 pounds.

With 237 miles (382km) on the clock, has been listed for $300,000, or $299,950 to be more precise. listed for sale on DupontRegistry.
