Letterman Racing,” noted Martin Birkmann, Motorsports Manager, BMW of North America. “Motorsport is deeply
ingrained in the BMW DNA and we are pleased to partner with an organization which shares that same heritage.

Re: 2008 M3 GTR

Thanks for the kind words guys. And thanks for posting the link, Joe. Hadn't been here in a while. Good to see you've got your hearts in the right spot.

Let us hope she is fast.

Re: 2008 M3 GTR

Martin, I see that the car was a Laguna Seca last week. Will it anywhere on the east coast where it can be seen?

Martin, Thanks, will it be on display for the duration of the NY Auto Show? I'd be coming up from DC.
