With “WE ARE M – THE M3 TOURING” we created a 8-part documentary seriesthat follows the development process of the first BMW M3 Touring from the first sketch to the final performance tuning on the Nordschleife.

The series offers unique behind-the-scenes insights: how does a high-performance sports car become a touring model with real M DNA? What challenges did engineers, designers and test drivers have to master to transfer the legendary M3 driving experience to a new concept?
