1997 BMW M3 'Track Car'

Overview

Sporting a higher-revving European-spec motor, this E36 M3 offers 282hp at the wheels on 93 octane fuel. It weighs in at 2,750 pounds with a half tank of gas, and two-way adjustable Moton coilovers keep it predictable in the corners. All of the necessary safety hardware has been fitted, making this turn-key for track duty. It should be noted that this example is not street legal, and a 20' steel open deck car hauler is available at extra cost.
