Hamann has released its latest performance and styling kit for the BMW 3-series convertible, which includes power mods for the entire range and individual styling accessories for both the body and interior.

To achieve its power upgrades, engineers have recalibrated the standard ECU, which leads to a 10hp boost for the 320i and an additional 10Nm of torque. The most powerful model in the range, the 335i, gets a power boost of 37hp that lifts the cabrio's top speed to 279km/h. Hamann also offers customers a sports air filter for the engine to help provide better power delivery throughout the rev range.

For the 330d, owners can expect a final output of 272hp and 600Nm of torque from as low as 2,000rpm, which enables a top speed of 256km/h. The car’s body has been enhanced with new bumpers, side skirts and four-pipe mufflers plus carbon-Kevlar mirror caps to add that performance touch.



Other accessories include three different sized forged wheels, upgraded brakes, and a lowered suspension kit.

    By fitting a suspension lowering kit comprising of four progressive suspension bmw struts, HAMANN succeeds in lowering the vehicle's center of gravity by 35 mm front and by 20 mm rear. For vehicles with sport suspension tuning systems from stock, that's still around 15 mm. In both cases, a clearly better handling results. Among race drives it is said "races are won on the brakes". For those who prefer to use somewhat more rapid acceleration, HAMANN program suggests powerful gripping brakes for security purposes!

    Let us include the brands M-B A-Class and Audi A1. We all know that these brands are considered high class and too expensive or maybe cheaper compared to other brands. But car buyers are looking for cheaper or greener features which are the hottest types of cars nowadays. However, they are also looking for luxury cars. But they prefer cars with quality parts like bmw 323i parts.

    Wow, that looks seriously aggressive. I wouldn\'t get the spoiler but the rest of the kit is yummy.
