The P60B40 V8. BMW's motorsport masterpiece.
THE STORY:
Built specifically to dominate Porsche in the American Le Mans Series, the P60B40 was a 4.0-liter V8 producing 444 horsepower, designed exclusively for the BMW M3 GTR E46.
2001 SEASON:
The M3 GTR hit ALMS tracks and immediately started winning. But rivals complained - this wasn't a production car, it was a prototype.
THE RULES:
ALMS modified regulations: the car had to be sold on two continents within twelve months. BMW complied, building exactly 10 street-legal M3 GTR versions for homologation.
THEN IT GOT WORSE:
2002: Rules changed again. Minimum 100 cars and 1,000 engines required to race without penalties.
BMW'S DECISION:
Rather than mass-produce the race car or compete with penalties, BMW pulled the M3 GTR from competition entirely.
THE LEGACY:
The P60B40 V8 was too successful, too dominant, too purpose-built. It did exactly what it was designed to do - beat Porsche. And for that... it was regulated out of existence.
Only 10 road-legal versions exist. This engine is motorsport legend.

Listen to that V8 scream. That's the sound of perfection.
