In line with the 3 Series, the 2016 M3 also gets LED taillights that help save on the power demand placed on the engine. Just like it is on the standard 3 Series sedan, full LED headlamps will be optional for the M3 facelift as well. Two new colours have also been unveiled for the M3, with one of them being Smoked Topaz metallic and the other being Champagne Quartz metallic. These two colours will be offered in addition to the existing Tanzanite Blue metallic and Azurite Schwarz metallic paint finishes.
