2002 BMW E46 M3 GTR Strassenversion

The M3 gets a V8! For a little over 225 000 USD BMW is offering a road going version of the M3 GTR. BMW claims a horsepower rating anywhere from 350 to 450 HP. The new 4 litre compact V8 fits well within the E46 engine bay.

The use of carbon fibre body sections and lightweight materials keep the GTR in & around 3000lbs. This puts the car almost 500lbs lighter than the standard M3.

A limited run of road going GTR's are planned to be sold around February 2002. Each one will be hand built by BMW's M division.
