A fledgling tuning company has revealed a remastered version of a restomodded BMW M3 Sport Evolution that’s set to cost its limited number of owners over £1.2m each.

The new car, provisionally called the Reamplificated BMW M3 Sport Evolution Revamped Remasterising 3.8 Mk5 takes an already restomodded version of BMW’s game-changing small performance saloon – originally subjected to multiple iterations by BMW itself – and remasters the restomod.

Insiders close to the project – involving 1,000 hours of labour – have revealed the key changes include new titanium interior door lock buttons, bonnet struts wrapped in 15-year old hide sourced from German cows, and an additional spoke on the steering wheel.

“Our remastered restomod challenges conceptions about the notion of performance and luxury and where those two previously irreconcilable roads converge into a confluence of energy and drama and analogue thrills designed for only the most judiciously discreet and determining driving enthusiasts,” a company spokesperson said.

“By resolving the conflict in the restomodded M3 and daring to dispute the obstacles inherent in its recreation – namely, plastic door locks, uncovered bonnet struts and only three spokes to interact with – we have elevated the elevated version of BMW’s elevated E30 M3 to unseen heights.

“You don’t own a Reamplificated BMW M3 Sport Evolution Revamped Remasterising 3.8 Mk5, it owns you,” the spokesperson added.

While all seven and a half examples have been accounted for, company insiders told TopGear.com there were plans to build a limited number of Reamplificated BMW M3 Sport Evolution Revamped Remasterising 3.8.5 Mk5.6s.

“For the most passionate supporters of our journey into the upper echelons of the previously untraversable tiers of premium automotive restoration, the 3.8.5 Mk5.6 delivers what BMW nor the restomodded version could never achieve in its time: a gearstick gaiter fashioned from wool.

“£2.5m is not a price, it is a portal into the exceptional,” the spokesperson said of the 3.8.5 Mk5.6’s cost.
