BMW M's 50 year anniversary celebration continues with yet more special edition models. The latest special editions are based on the M4 Coupe for Europe and other markets and the M3 for North America and have been badged the Edition 50 Jahre BMW M. ‘Jahre' is the German word for ‘years' – so essentially the car is the ‘Edition 50 Years BMW M'.

Additionally BMW India has confirmed that it is bringing its 50 Years of M special edition models to India accompanied by the hashtag 50 Jahre BMW M suggesting that the special edition M4 is coming to India soon - BMW has yet to launch the current-gen M3 in India.

Inside, the M3 Edition 50 Jahre gets unique stitching on the standard-fit sports seats along with Edition 50 Jahre BMW M lettering on the door sills and a plaque on the dashboard displaying the model's serial number. Buyers also get the option to upgrade to M carbon bucket seats.

BMW's made no tweaks to the 3.0-litre twin-turbo in-line six petrol engine under the bonnet. The unit delivers 503 bhp of peak power and is paired with either a 6-speed manual or 8-speed automatic gearbox. Both cars also get the option of xDrive all-wheel drive. Expect the model for India to be offered in a similar spec as the current M4 with standard all-wheel drive.

The company has also said that there will be more launches across model ranges so we could expect other special edition and limited edition models to also be launched in the coming months.
