I remember seeing rumours that it had around 300hp..... Still a very good choice to compete in the Gumball. Also stealthy enough: last year in Spain the police was stopping everyone after a toll booth. The just covered the whole right side of their car in ductape so it looked like a regual black E46 and they got away with it.

Found back their story:
The ship got into Spain much later than expected and we had around 5 hours to cover the 500+ miles from Almeria to Barcelona for the Grand prix. However, we soon found that the Spanish police here were not so happy to see us again and really did pull our pants down! We got through the first toll booth and after we heard reports for fines of 315€ for every Gumball car for "taking part in a illegal unauthorised road race", we decided to go into special ops mode. We found a secluded industrial estate, taped up the whole right hand side of the car with black gaffa tape (duck tape) and carried on. Close up it looked horrible, but from 30 feet away, Bingo!

Our theory was to go through the very left toll booth, the furthest away from the waiting cops and look like a normal black saloon BMW, yeah right like Gumball Baby! And it worked a treat. The cops didn't even look twice at us and we simply drove past the herds of other Gumballer's that where pulled over at the side of the road and fined at the local Police station. A few people proceeded to remove the Gumball stickers from their cars, but if you are in a Porsche, Ferrari or Lamborghini then you where pulled anyway. We had no more hassle and we just drove, but we were still behind schedule, we arrived at the Barcelona Grand Prix just as it finished and the roads were changed to exit only! We missed getting in by only 20 minutes. Then we pushed on to the Ray Juan Carlos hotel in the centre of Barcelona where we arrived shortly after.
