Limited to just 150 units for the region, the M3 MT Final Edition stands as a nod to the storied legacy of the BMW M3 series, with a blend of high performance and practicality and dually pays tribute to the 35th anniversary of the M3\u2019s first triumph in the German Touring Car Championship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The M3 MT Final Edition is distinguished not only by its manual transmission but also by its homage to racing heritage. It features special gold-painted wheels and red accents on the seats, reminiscent of Roberto Lavalier\u2019s winning racer and somewhat similar to the U.S. market CS. As the final manual M3 to roll out, it symbolizes a farewell to a cherished chapter in the automotive brand\u2019s history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">BMW\u2019s M models have always stood at the pinnacle of circuit-ready performance and everyday driving exhilaration. The M3 MT Final Edition echoes this philosophy, offering an M High-Performance (Competiton) model that does not compromise on practicality for day-to-day use. With its right-hand drive configuration and 6-speed manual transmission, it promises a driving experience that\u2019s as thrilling as it is exclusive. It\u2019s also worth noting that the model is available in three different colors, namely \u201cAlpine White\u201d and two metallic options: \u201cBlack Sapphire\u201d and \u201cM Brooklyn Gray.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As the curtain falls on the manual M3, the MT Final Edition serves as a fitting send-off, celebrating decades of engineering excellence and racing heritage. Enthusiasts and collectors interested in landing an allocation are able to apply via a lottery system via BMW Japan\u2019s official site until March 27 \u2014 with deliveries expected to follow soon after allocations are announced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\"
