Power House Amuse Ericsson M480 E92 M3

From personal experience, when Power House Amuse gets involved in building a car, they do it with total perfection, as evidenced by the Amuse S2000 GT-1 and Amuse Fairlady Z. The Power House Amuse Ericsson M480 E92 M3 is their latest creation and here it is in all of its titanium and carbon fiber glory.

Ericsson is Amuse's new tuning division for European cars, specifically BMW's. They started with the E60 M5, now the E92 M3 with the E86 Z4 M and the E46 M3 on their roadmap. The Amuse Ericsson M3 features Amuse's signature Titan Performa exhaust with burnt blue/purple titanium exhaust tips, Ericsson intake, Ericsson suspension, carbon fiber hood, truck and doors and 20 inch BBS LM-R wheels. While not much else is known, there most likely exists other engine enhancements. The results is as stunning as the car itself - performance has been increased from 414HP to 473HP while the weight has been reduced from 3,600 lbs to 3,200 lbs.
