Customer Racing.

BMW has always been at home on the racetrack with touring and sports cars. Success is in the genes of the cars from Munich. Private teams and drivers can purchase vehicles from the BMW Motorsport product range, with which to do battle for points and victories in a wide range of championships. Whether the BMW M3 GT, BMW Z4 GT3, BMW M3 GT4 or BMW 320 TC: not just the professionals, but also ambitious privateers around the world can set their sights on the podium with BMW racing cars.

When buying a car from BMW Motorsport, customer teams can look forward to more than justa competitive car. BMW Motorsport Director Mario Theissen explains: “BMW gives high priority to developing touring cars that can be purchased by independent teams and used internationally. To do this, it is crucial to keep the costs and technology manageable.” The cars available have been through an intensive development phase. Only approved parts that offer both excellent performance and a good cost/performance ratio make it onto the race track.

One particular appeal for privateers is the annual BMW Sports Trophy. Since the 1960s, BMW Motorsport has honoured the performances of successful private drivers and teams using BMW cars. A total prize purse of over 250,000 Euros is on offer to participants. The comprehensive range of benefits associated with the BMW Sports Trophy is another reason for the ever-increasing popularity of this competition among privateers.
