Videos: 2010 BMW M3 GTS

2010 BMW M3 GTS


We've seen what it looks like and read how much of a track demon it would be but now, thanks to BMW, we get to hear what the new M3 GTS sounds like and see how it goes on a track with the release of two official videos.


Unveiled late last week, the hardcore M3 GTS is a regular M3 on steroids. Engine capacity has been increased to 4.4-litres with the V8 now developing 331 kW of power. Coupled with a diet of around 100 kg, there's no questioning that the BMW M3 GTS is an exclusive model for the genuine motorsport enthusiast.

BMW M3 V8 engine


Ever wondered what a car's cylinders would look like in slow motion when they're fired up?

This latest TV commercial for the stonking BMW E92 M3 over in the US shows you just that by using unprecedented technology to film the combustion process of a BMW M3 V8 engine without using computer generated effects.




As you can imagine, filming this process would have been an absolute nightmare and required a heck of a lot of planning which included sacrificing(!) three M3 V8 engines so manifolds could be cut, cylinders shaved, and lighting holes drilled for special cameras and lenses to capture the action.

Now that's what we call a marketing budget for a commercial that runs for just 30-seconds.
