BMW is begining to build race ready car again, This is almost the same thing that BMW did with the E30 M3, and i think that it is awesome.
It's a 120d, yup its a desiel producing 245 hp. Fully race prepared from the factory and they are backing a full race parts program with the car. Cost is 95k euros, but it is a factory racecar.
I figured you guy would like it seeing as this is the evolution of the e36 compact.
