Anyone actually read the paper Brochure (Ring time is in it)

Swashplate · 02-17-2011, 10:24 AM

I was just reading the brochure I bought on Ebay.

There is one page with an outline of the 'Ring.

In the text it states the M Coupe did the ring in 8:30

Just food for thought. I will scan the page in tomorrow

as it is not on the PDF version.

Interesting. Slower than the time on wikipedia.

Thats what I thought. I wonder why the page is absent from the PDF version...

In BMW nomenclature, the "M Coupe" refers to the original MZ3 Coupe. And that car did do the 'Ring in 8:30 with the S52 engine.

The most recent BMW M Roadster and Coupe were produced for 2006, but BMW officially changed the car's name to Z4 M for the two following years [2007 and 2008].
