Video: BMW M3 GT2 ALMS racecar

July 16th 2008 11:15
BMW M3 GT2 ALMS racecar


The introduction of the current generation E92 V8-powered M3 has given BMW an unrestricted entry ticket to the world of American Le Mans Series (ALMS) motorsport with the Bobby Rahal and David Letterman racing team unveiling a new racecar at the Chicago Auto Show in February this year.

Since then, we have heard very little about the 357 kW (485 hp) 4.0-litre V8 M3 racecar - until now. BMW Motorsport in conjunction with the Rahal Letterman racing team has released a video of the ALMS BMW M3 with some superb footage of the racecar on a track together with a road-going M3.





Looking supremely bad-ass in its aggressive widebody armour, the racecar will be rubbing shoulders fenders with the likes of Porsche and Ferrari in the GT2 series this upcoming season.

BMW M3 V8 combustion process on video

April 8th 2008 11:00
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.

Read more about the BMW M3 here and read this to learn about the secrets of the high revving V8.
