BMW M3 GTR

BMW M3 GTR

This car was initially created in 2001 as a racing prototype. In order to qualify as a Gran Turismo car, however, BMW was forced to produce a street version as well. Only 10 units were sold to selected clients.

Design: As you would expect from a former racing car, the design is very clean, focused on the aerodynamics and performance. Hood and lateral vents complete the look.

Performance: The racing car featured a beastly 4-litre engine, with 8 cylinders in V formation, capable of producing 444 bhp. The street version, for obvious reasons, was tweaked down a bit, producing 380 bhp. The racing one could accelerate from 0-60 mph (0-100 km/h) in 3.3 seconds.

Chick Factor: Medium to high. Girls would undervalue this awesome car. For them it would probably just look like an executive sedan (if that happens to you, just make that engine roar a bit!).
