With all the limited-edition love available across the pond, it's nice to see BMW is willing to share the wealth in the States. To that end, 30 lucky Bimmerphiles can get their mitts on one of the 2011 Frozen Gray M3 Coupes when orders begin this Monday, June 21st.

What's so special about the unimaginatively named Frozen Gray M3? To begin with, the exterior is an exclusive matte finish combining a Space Gray base and BMW's ColorSystem silk matte clear coat. If that's not enough to get you interested in plunking down $77,600 (including destination and gas guzzler tax), the red Novillo leather and Competition Package - comprised of a 10mm lower ride height, unique 19-inch wheels, a revised M Dynamic Mode and Electronic Damping Control - make this limited-edition M3 more compelling.

Output from the 4.0-liter V8 remains unchanged at 414 horsepower, with grunt being sent to BMW's M Double Clutch Transmission to net a 0-60 mph time of 4.5 seconds. If you're interested in rowing your own, a six-speed manual is available, but you'll sacrifice two-tenths of a second in the sprint to 60.

There's plenty of other kit included in the package, so make the jump for all the details and get ready to dial BMW's dedicated 800-number at 11:30 AM EST on Monday to place your order.
