There is one in Texas as far as I know...

I am sure that there are grey market cars and/or conversions in the country.

However, that's not the same as a car being offered for sale in North America by BMW, which is what is being discussed in this thread.

It was imported by Turner Motorsports and is not registered for street use. It is brought to and from the track on a trailer.

I want to hear about the competition pack but hearing about the M2 may be equally pleasing!

The M2's markup will be on par with lightly optioned F8x m3/m4. And I'm guessing limited numbers as well.

I saw the badge and lanyard so I assumed that it was either going on currently or in the very near future.

You refer to the private event whose information was captured in the image in the first post, correct (March 23rd)?

But when will this M2 and M4 GTS information be made public?

I'm going to go on the record predicting a 0-60 time in the low-mid 3 second range and a 1/4 mile of around 11.5@125 for the M4 GTS. Considering the trouble the TPG guys had with the axles, I wouldn't be surprised to see new solid rear axles.

From our forums that trap is like the base car with downpipes, Jb4, e85 mix and drag radials. Would be pretty cool if the GTS really did give that much more power
