BMW M3 E46 GTR Grand-Am with S62 4.9 N/A V8 Engine | BRUTAL Raw Sounds feat OnBoard Footage!

This was definitely one of my favorite cars at this year's Mugello Classic by Peter Auto. More videos coming soon, stay tuned folks!

More of that 700bhp scooby with sequential gearbox…Omg if I knew where that cat was I would try to steal it 🤣……I need it in my life…Loving your vids man 👍

[@fontheking5]

The anyone who wonders about the engine : This has the same base engine as the E39 Bmw M5 and Bmw Z8, which has a 90 degree crossplane crankshaft, which gives this rumbling v8 growl. The M3 GTR which everyone knows about, had a 4 liter V8 with a 180 degree flat plane crankshaft, which gives it that famous sound.

[@henrik1743]

Thanks king

[@sharvy1581]

engine sound is a one thing but I'd say it's more famous for the straight cut gears sound

[@Wreckedftfoxy]

im more curious where tranny whine go because that made the 4L V8 crossplane sound even more sexy, now without all that it sounds boring like i want a european touring car to sound european ill get a muscle car for a rumbling v8

[@matijapotic1286]

Brother, if it is 180 degrees, it is not a "V8" engine anymore, it is a "flat 8"

[@gerrit2107]

[@alphalead15]

Some info about this awesome M3. Built by the legendary PTG BMW racing team it was first raced at the 2001 Daytona 24 and instantly proved to be very fast, Running 3rd overall (First in the GT class) when it retired with an oil leak with 7 hours left in the race. Just like its ALMS brother the legality of the car was questioned but unlike the ALMS the rules allowed the car to be able to race which it did until 2003, scoring 3 wins in 2001 and a single win in 2002.

[@shinawaraliek]

I just realised that in NFS MW 2005 when razor cause oil leak to takeout the racer was inspired by the real event when M3 GTR was retired

[@HEKTIC458]

[@km6832]

​@@axelhorneff5077 p60 was derived from this engine in some sense tho

[@theultimatechopstick3613]

@@km6832 No, it wasn't. The S62B50 has a displacement of 5 liters, a crossplane crankshaft and is only found regularly in the M5 E39. The P60B40 has a displacement of 4 liters and a flatplane crankshaft. No similarities between those engines, as the S62 is a derivative of the M62. P60 is a bespoke development. Both sound great in their own right though.

[@km6832]

@@theultimatechopstick3613 damn, comprehension is at an all time low in the world. The s62 and m62 were bmws first attempt at a mass produced v8 engine, the s62 was then placed in this e46 gtr. Then the p60 came, you really think bmw would make the p60 which is a bespoke race engine in a configuration they have no experience in, from the ground up and it was as dominant as it was with zero faults or failures? No, but because the s62 is 5 liters with a cross plane crank and the p60 is 4 liters with a flat plane crank that means they share no similarities and the p60 could never be derived from the s62. There is something called destroking, look it up if you dont know what it is. Your argument is like saying because the amg gtr and amg gt black series have different cranks does not mean its not the same base engine. Derived doesnt always mean you pluck one out one car and change a few things and place it in another derived means you use the knowledge and tech from a previous version to make the new version better. Come on man the knowledge is out there. And because its not openly said does not mean anything. For any OEM to make a new race engine in a configuration they never made one in before is next to impossible

[@fancy3774]

finally the legendary M3 gtr 😭😭

[@BigPatViggen]

This is not the same V8 that was used in the GTR. It was closer to an Indycar engine than the road car engine this engine is based on.

[@Sylvanbarber]

When I was racing Grand Am Cup in my E36 with Terry Borcheller Jim Bell running the team/engineering I drove this same V8 car in a sprint race at Daytona. It was/is a truly special car and experience.

[@DK-421]

I'm jealous! I've driven my friend's E39 M5, and I had my E39 540i/6, both were the closest I came to a performance vehicle I've owned. Although I did have 2 E36's, now I'm in an F02 740iL, and it's just so heartless. I miss the old days of BMW being true driver cars.

[@stevepeters3032]

Wow, sounds amazing. What a car.

[@Virvum_Juggernaut]

The minimal throttle input and loss of traction when initially exiting pit-lane says it all = BEAST! The gear ratios are close together. Seems to run out of breath too quickly in the higher gears, like @ 8:13 when the GT3RS pulls away from it down the straight. Edit : Poor dude 2 cars ahead immediately spun out on the green flag’s release lol.
