I'd love for that to happen. I'd read some news reports saying BMW might pull out of ALMS after this year if the Z4 wasn't allowed. That Z4 GT3 just looks amazing IMO.

On the other hand, I wish that BMW will go back to WTCC with their official team using the new 3 series. I personally would like to see more 3 saloons and Coupes (M3) on the race track. |

I love the look of the Z4 GT3 and would love to see it in ALMS competition. Would be really nice to see an M derived roadgoing version.

I personally think they did it for sponsorship dollars/attendance boost. Dodge was huge at Le Mans back in the late 90s. It will be really fun to see if they can rekindle the former glory. |
