BMW M3 cars manufactured by BMW Autos maker,BMW is one of the best Auto Makers.
Outside several cars running in the BMW CCA Club Racing (an amateur series specific only to BMW models) PTG had between two and four models that competed in the IMSA. Looks like one of those cars was sold to Jeff McMillan, who won the SCCA World Challenge series, without winning a single race. One was raced in the SCCA Touring 1 class of John Browne. The team now defunct Massari Muller won the Motorola Cup 1998 "Great sport class" championship with drivers Terry Borcheller and Andy Pilgrim in an M3.

The M3 GT Coupe was a limited-edition mainland Europe only edition of which 356 were made, 50 further M3 GT Individuals were made in right-hand drive for the UK market. All were built in 1995.
Famous for being British Racing Green with a Mexico Green interior – a peculiar choice when the traditional German national racing colours were white with red numbers.
The BMW M3 GT was a homologation series special built to allow the E36 M3 to compete in the FIA-GT class II, IMSA GT and international longdistance races.
BMW M3 GTR
The E36 M3 GTR is the road-going version of the competition machine built to compete in the 1994 ADAC German GT Cup Touring Car series. Essentially a race car with license plates, it features a stripped out interior and lightweight body panels (dropping the curb weight to 1300 kg), bumper flares to accommodate the 18-inch wheels and tires, adjustable front and rear spoilers, a full roll cage and a 300 hp version of the S50 B30 engine. Only two street-legal examples were built.

The third road car version produced 192 hp (143 kW, 195 PS) (catalyzed model) and 197.3 hp (147 kW 200 hp) model (uncatalyzed). Evolution (not sold in North America) continued with 2.3 liters but adopted a series of changes, including a profile of the intake camshaft revised and amended from time to exhaust cams, higher compression, and a more efficient design brings the suction head of the cylinder. Largest diameter of the exhaust manifold, together with the lack of a catalyst contributed to produce about 220 hp (160 kW). Other changes to the Evolution model includes larger wheels (16 x 7.5 inches), thin glass rear window and side, a trunk lid lighter, a front spoiler and rear wing added.
Later the Sport Evolution model production run of 600 (sometimes referred as Evolution III) increased engine size of 2.5 L and produced 238 hp (177 kW, 241 PS). Evolution Sport models had the highest lift camshaft intake and exhaust openings widened bumpers front and multi-position adjustable front splitter and rear spoiler. Brake cooling ducts have been installed instead of the front fog lamps. A further 786 convertible bonds have been produced.
