A BMW M3 CRT making its way to Texas

The limited edition BMW M3 CRT finds a home in Texas.

One of our readers spotted an interesting piece of news on the BMW Welt official page. According to the fan page, Martin, a Texas-resident, took delivery of a BMW M3 CRT and will soon be shipped to the US.

Back in July 2011, at the BMW M Festival, BMW introduced the all-new, exclusive and limited M3 CRT. The car was homologated only in Europe and BMW produced it as a limited edition – 67 units.

Following the steps of the M3 GTS, the CRT comes with a premium price and a wide range of performance upgrades. It was priced in Germany at 130,000 euro. BMW M3 Carbon Fiber Technology debuts new production process for CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced plastic) components that are used in the upcoming i3 and i8.

The terms of the deal remain unknown and most likely it involves additional details that are not being disclosed at the moment. The biggest challenge will come during the registration process to meet the NHTSA rules.

Here is the announcement on the BMW Welt page:

Even at BMW Welt you don’t very often set eyes on this kind of car. Mr Martin H. from Texas beamed with delight as he took delivery of his brand-new BMW M3 CRT yesterday. The lightweight special-edition model musters 450 hp and comes in a limited production run of 67. It was with a heavy heart that our US visitor – who already owns several M cars – bade farewell to his new treasure: the car will be shipped to the States. Bon voyage and best of luck on the race track, Martin!”
