In the USA, at the Cars and Bids auction, an unusual "troika" of BMW since 1995. For the car with a mileage of 164,000 kilometers, the sum of $67,000 was paid (as much as a new VW Touareg in the US), although usually such cars are much cheaper. Why is the car so expensive, the auction organizers themselves told.
The fact is that the BMW M3 E36 in question is a coupe version and is of the very rare GT version, of which only 356 units were produced. Back in the day, the BMW M3 GT sports car was launched to allow the model to compete in FIA GT and IMSA races. For this purpose, the coupe is made to look like a racing car.
As you can see from the photos, this BMW M3 E36 has a new front bumper with a splitter, a large spoiler and special 17-inch wheels. In addition, all 356 cars are painted in dark green, specifically British Racing Green.
To make the sports car lighter, the doors are made of aluminum. This, as well as other modifications, reduces the weight of the BMW M3 GT by 30 kg. Special stabilizer bars and struts increased the rigidity of the body and suspension.
The interior includes heated sports seats upholstered in green Nappa leather and Alcantara. In addition, in the decoration, even in those years, decorative elements of carbon appear.
The power of the three-liter six has been increased from 286 to 295 forces. The maximum speed is also higher and is now 275 km/h. The self-locking differential was specially developed for the model and significantly improves the car's handling.
