BMW M4 GT3
Revealed at BMW Sim Live in December 2020, the BMW M4 GT3’s reveal was a bridge between the virtual world and the real one—especially as its steering wheel could be removed from the real car and plugged directly into iRacing. The car received a pre-release on iRacing to give sim racers a taste of what to expect before it began competing in GT3 series around the world, and received updates in-sim to match its final form.
The BMW M4 GT3 succeeded the BMW Z4 GT3 as the second BMW to join iRacing’s GT3 offerings. It’s powered by a 3-liter twin turbo straight-six engine capable of producing 590 horsepower. Marked by traditional BMW styling cues, the M4 GT3 is as instantly recognizable as any of its predecessors both on track and off.
