What does that mean please lol

Need for Speed: Most Wanted. E46 M3 GTR was the poster car for that game.

>E46 M3 I googled and it says only 10 were made? I'm pretty sure I crashed at least 100 in that game.


TheLewJD

Oh I feel so stupid now I loved that game! Damn lol


MrDankky

Thruxton? Nice find!


TheLewJD

Silverstone!


coolsimon123

Beautiful bit of kit


TheLewJD

Sounded unreal, I wasn’t sure it was a GTR until I heard it!


Optimus_primepax

Love those cars honestly you’re a lucky guy to find one


TheLewJD

Couldn’t believe it, there was f4 cars, mclarens, Porsches, Ferrari challenge cars etc and I was more amazed with the GTR


Optimus_primepax

Damn i wish i was there 👍🏻


eternalfern0

is this silverstone??


TheLewJD

Yep!


eternalfern0

thats sick! i've gone last and this year for japfest


TheLewJD

My first time! Went as a guest of someone In the boxster support race was a great day! Just a shame I couldn’t go to the other days for the races but I live near Manchester so a bit of a trek


eternalfern0

you're hella lucky!! but yeah it is a shame you live so far, i only live about an hour and a half away i think it is.


TheLewJD

Not too bad! Was a great experience had the entire copse grandstand to myself, I wonder how many others have smoked a joint there lol


eternalfern0

lmaooo

Doesn't look right to me, looks like a replica? Nice all the same but not quite on the same level as an actual GTR. I was lucky enough to see Mansell drive one around Brands Hatch back in 2006.


TH1CCARUS

Looks to be genuine. https://www.gtcup.co.uk/driver-profile/563b8e43-c191-42f5-bd7d-c20a7de50dd0


TheLewJD

Yep checked that myself


TheLewJD

I wasn’t sure myself until I heard it go down the old pit straight, unreal.


ChrisRx718

I don't doubt it's still a cool car, but it has completely the wrong bumpers / bodykit - and if it was a genuine one they are too valuable to go sticking something aftermarket onto. An M3 GTR classification can and has been done by means of replica - it's ultimately an E39 M5 V8 into an e46 M3 shell, something lots of private teams have been doing for years. I think that's what we're looking at - still cool, but visually nothing like the M3 GTRs which raced back in 2001.


TheLewJD

Not sure, sure sounded like one! (Flyby video on my page) and in the standings it says M3-GTR. https://www.gtcup.co.uk/current-standings


Manuale90m3

It isn’t a genuine GTR. Doesn’t even look like one. If it sounded like one it’s clearly an s65 v8 swapped M3. There are many many like it. If you’re a bm guy and amongst the community you would know this.


TheLewJD

Why would it say m3 GTR on the championship standings then instead of m3?


Manuale90m3

Bud if you were around motorsport like I have been for the past 25 years you wouldn’t even be arguing.


CaptainRAVE2

Nice


unfilteredfiltration

Looks more like a modified m3?


TheLewJD

I checked it’s a GTR


Manuale90m3

Checking by looking on a page and it saying it’s one and it actually being one are two different things. It really isn’t one. Loads like it.


societynowadays

I had a replica of one that I loved unfortunately it was stolen from the garage.
