BMW introduced another special-edition of the M3. Last year, it looked pretty fierce in Frozen Gray. This year, it looks meaner yet in Frozen Black.
Featuring a stark, urbanite shade of matte black with contrasting high-gloss kidney grilles, side-grill elements, and exhaust tail pipe, it's delightfully devilish. The new BMW M5 Frozen-Black edition is also fitted with Novillo leather seats accented with red stitching, bright red brake calipers, and Black M3 GTS wheels with 19" high-performance summer tires.

The special-edition BMW M3 officially launched June 16, 2011. Due to high global demand, the U.S. has been allotted only 20 units. Effectively, BMW has opened up a first-come-first-serve reservation list, promising 19 of the 20 Frozen Black Edition M3 coupes for delivery by the end of the month.
What's to become of the 20thcar? BMW North America is planning to hold it and perhaps sell it at a later date. Get more info at BMW of Silver Spring - 3211 Automobile Blvd. Silver Spring, MD 20904.
