Gunther Werks is about to modify an E30 BMW M3

Tuning house Gunther Werks has said it is about to do something. And that ‘something’ amounts to modifying the holiest of all BMWs, the E30 M3.

A missive on its social media page simply reads: “A legendary icon about to be remastered by our special division at GW9 by Gunther Werks.”

It was accompanied not only by the image you see above, but also a load of #hashtags, hinting at exactly what GW9 is about to do. If you're wondering exactly what GW9 itself is, that’s Gunther Werks’ parts division.

So, judging by the #hashtags deployed - #carbonfibre, #powertoweight, #handmade and #limitededition - TopGear.com can exclusively reveal this Gunther Werks remastered E30 M3 will be constructed using carbon fibre, with a good power-to-weight ratio, hand made in a small, limited edition run of cars.
