VIDEO: E92 BMW M3 racer rolls out to the track

Filed under: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/motorsports/" rel="tag">Motorsports</a>, <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/videos/" rel="tag">Videos</a>, <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/bmw/" rel="tag">BMW</a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/07/14/video-e92-bmw-m3-racer-rolls-out-to-the-track/"><img vspace="4" hspace="4" border="1" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/07/m3racingversionvideo.jpg" alt="" /></a> Click above to watch the E92 M3 race car in action
The previous generation M3 had a short but dominant history in the American Le Mans Series. Competing in the 2001 season with a 4.0-liter V8, the M3 GTR decimated the GT (now GT2) class. Porsche cried foul, citing a lack of an "authentic" V8-powered M3 production car. Despite a small run of V8 M3s to satisfy regulations, the ALMS changed the rules so that BMW had to either produce 1000 road cars or face weight and intake restrictions. BMW decided it wasn't worth it and didn't return for the 2002 season. But with introduction of the E92 M3, BMW is free to race with a V8 unrestricted and <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/06/chicago-2008-bmw-back-in-alms-with-rahal-letterman-racing-m3/">announced their racing program in cooperation with Rahal Letterman Racing, as well as unveiling a new racecar at the Chicago Auto Show this year</a>. We haven't heard much about the car since then, but BMW Motorsport released a video showing some pretty awesome footage of the car on track. It's design is aggressively beautiful, and we can't wait to see it rub fenders with Porsche and Ferrari next year in GT2.

BMW working on M3 CSL with 470 hp

The rumormongers at AutoZeitung are reporting that BMW plans to unveil a stripped-out, track-ready M3 at the 2009 <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/FrankfurtMotorShow/">Frankfurt Motor Show</a>. The E90-based M3 CSL will use many of the same tricks BMW employed on the E46 model in an effort to shave the coupe's curb weight. Luxuries like air conditioning, stereo and navigation won't be included, while the hood, bumper, trunk and fenders will all be swapped out in favor of carbon fiber pieces. In addition to keeping the pounds down, BMW will reportedly boost the output of the M3 CSL by an additional 50 horsepower, for a total of 470 bhp. That should allow the E90 CSL run to 60 in around four seconds, on its way to a top speed of around 185 mph. Production of the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/2010BMWM3CSL/">2010 BMW M3 CSL</a> will be limited to 100 units and pricing is estimated at 90,000 euro, or just over $140k. <div class="postgallery"><s trong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2008-bmw-m3/">2008 BMW M3</a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2008-bmw-m3/206107/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2007/04/2008_bmw-m3coupe_hi001_thumbnail.j pg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2008-bmw-m3/206108/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2007/04/2008_bmw-m3coupe_hi002_thumbnail.j pg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2008-bmw-m3/206109/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2007/04/2008_bmw-m3coupe_hi003_thumbnail.j pg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2008-bmw-m3/206110/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2007/04/2008_bmw-m3coupe_hi004_thumbnail.j pg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2008-bmw-m3/206111/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2007/04/2008_bmw-m3coupe_hi005_thumbnail.j pg" alt="" title="" /></a></div> [Source: <a href="http://www.autozeitung.de/online/render.php?render=0136310 ">AutoZeitung</a> via <a href="http://www.egmcartech.com/2008/07/16/2010-bmw-m3-csl-to-get-470-hp-top-speed-of-186mph/">EGMCarTech</a>] <a href=http://www.autozeitung.de/online/render.php?render=0136310 >Read</a> | <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/07/16/2010-bmw-m3-csl-in-the-works-packing-470-hp/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/forward/1257660/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a> | <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/07/16/2010-bmw-m3-csl-in-the-works-packing-470-hp/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a><hr />

Spy Shots: Next gen BMW Z4 snapped again on SoCal freeway

Filed under: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/spyphotos/" rel="tag">Spy Photos</a>, <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/convertibles/" rel="tag">Convertibles</a>, <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/bmw/" rel="tag">BMW</a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/bmw-z4-socal-spy-shots/933264/"><img hspace="4" border="0" align="top" vspace="4" alt="" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/07/z4-3-450.jpg" /></a> Our ever-vigilant readers have struck, proving yet again that in the age of the camera phone, almost anyone with a mobile device can emulate Jim Dunne, Brenda Priddy or Hans Lehmann. The latest capture we've received comes from reader Charlie Hung, who recently spotted this black roadster on a Southern California freeway. A quick inspection of the images reveals it to be the next-generation BMW Z4 that's been spodded periodically for some time now. The bodywork on BMW's latest offerings would suggest that the current Z4's flame surfacing will probably be radically toned down. Much of the contouring we see on this prototype is likely just camouflage. Underhood, we'll probably get the same powertrain lineup as the 3 Series, with the next M Roadster getting the M3's V8. Judging from the size of the rear window, the Z4 will probably pick up a retractable hard top as well. When the new Z4 debuts, BMW will move production from its current home Spartanburg, SC to Germany. Spartanburg will take over production of the X3 crossover. <div class="postgallery"><s trong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/bmw-z4-socal-spy-shots/">BMW Z4 SoCal Spy Shots</a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/bmw-z4-socal-spy-shots/933267/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/07/z4-2_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/bmw-z4-socal-spy-shots/933266/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/07/z4-1_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/bmw-z4-socal-spy-shots/933264/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/07/z4-3_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div> [Source: Charlie Hung] <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/07/19/spy-shots-next-gen-bmw-z4-snapped-again-on-socal-freeway/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/forward/1261062/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a> | <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/07/19/spy-shots-next-gen-bmw-z4-snapped-again-on-socal-freeway/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a><hr />

Rendered Speculation: V8-powered BMW Z4 hardtop

Filed under: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/convertibles/" rel="tag">Convertibles</a>, <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/coupes/" rel="tag">Coupes</a>, <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/bmw/" rel="tag">BMW</a>, <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/rendered-speculation/" rel="tag">Rendered Speculation</a><a href="http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/news/autoexpressnews/225366/new_z4_joins_the_hardtop_ fold.html"><img vspace="4" hspace="4" border="1" align="right" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/07/car_photo_272526_25_250op .jpg" alt="" /></a>AutoExpress' artists worked their magic on the next generation BMW Z4 and even though the exterior is more appealing than its predecessor, what lies beneath the evolved flame-surfacing has us aching to get behind the wheel. As <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/07/19/spy-shots-next-gen-bmw-z4-snapped-again-on-socal-freeway/">reported before</a>, the next Z4 will feature a retractable hard top, but a cloth roof will continue to be offered on entry-level models. Motivation will come in several different flavors, beginning with naturally aspirated four- and six-cylinder powerplants. A diesel is also being considered - a first for the Z4 - and there's no doubt that the 3-series-based roadster will come packing the twin-turbocharged, 3.0-liter inline six that's proliferated throughout BMW's lineup. More importantly, rumors are beginning to swirl that the M version will be equipped with the 4.0-liter V8 currently found in the M3. If that happens, it's all but guaranteed that the twin-clutch gearbox will find a happy home in the transmission tunnel.

Those in attendance at the German Grand Prix this past weekend were also treated to a revival of the M1 Procar series that originally raced in support of the F1 schedule in 1979 and 1980. The original series featured the five fastest F1 drivers in the Friday practice session in addition to another 15 cars with up and coming drivers behind the wheel. The M1 Procars, which were featured in races both on Saturday and Sunday, were piloted by some of the most famous names in motorsports including three-time F1 champion Niki Lauda who took the lead early and kept it until the end.
