Video: Three BMW M3 GTS at Nurburgring (great sound)

According to reports, the lap time recorded by the M3 GTS was 7:40 minutes, same as its unofficial predecessor, the E46 M3 CSL.

The BMW M3 GTS is produced at the BMW M GmbH manufacturing facility. In addition to a larger and more powerful V8 engine (450 horsepower), exclusive tuning of the 7-speed M Dual Clutch Transmission with Drivelogic and modified suspension technology, the car, which is designed for club sport use, has also been specifically optimized with regard to aerodynamics and lightweight construction.

The BMW M3 GTS accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in a mere 4.4 seconds. The car reaches the 1000 meter mark from a standstill in just 22.5 seconds. Top speed is 305 km/h.

GOD I love that deep raspy growl! They did a really good job with the kit, too. I really like the dark bits. MSRP is a bit steep, otherwise a well put together car IMO.

As owner of CSL I am very happy that BMW from 2003 can do the same lap time as more powerful BMW from 2011.
