2009 BMW M3 ALMS Race Car

BMW presented the racing version of the new BMW M3 at the Chicago Auto Show. Powered by a 485 bhp eight cylinder engine, this impressive race car has been designed to compete in the American Le Mans Series (ALMS) beginning in 2009. The car is based on the fourth generation of the BMW M3, the high-performance sports car produced by BMW M GmbH.

BMW Motorsport Director Mario Theissen says: "With the sporting genes of the production BMW M3 being clearly evident, developing a racing version of the car was the next logical step. The fact that the road-going vehicle is fitted with a V8 engine as standard provided us with an ideal base. However, the BMW M3 is more than a race car, it has achieved legendary status amongst race fans across the globe. I am convinced that this unique story of the BMW M3 racing cars will now be expanded upon by the addition of further chapters."

BMW's 2009 entry into the American Le Mans Series will be driven by a partnership between BMW of North America, LLC and Rahal Letterman Racing, co-owned by US motorsport legend Bobby Rahal.

"We are very pleased to be returning to the American Le Mans Series with our latest generation BMW M3," states Tom Purves, Chairman and CEO, BMW of North America. "Sports car racing has been part of BMW of North America's history practically from day one. Just two weeks after the company was incorporated in March 1975, a BMW CSL won the Twelve Hours of Sebring. We are confident that the fourth generation M3 will continue the legacy of its two predecessors which combined to win six manufacturer's championships over nine seasons in US sports car racing. As it has been in the past we believe the ALMS is the ideal venue to showcase the potential of the newest BMW M3."

Echoing that sentiment Bobby Rahal adds, "BMW has an illustrious racing heritage. Rahal Letterman Racing is eagerly anticipating, not only becoming part of that heritage, but helping to enhance it. Our dedication to this project will be without equal and we look forward to racing at the front of the grid with BMW in the years to come."

Martin Birkmann, Motorsports Manager, BMW of North America, adds: "We are very excited to announce our return to the American Le Mans Series with the 4th generation M3 at the same time as the road car hits the BMW showrooms. We are also excited about our partnership with Rahal Letterman Racing. The ALMS offers racing where we can compete against the finest and most renowned automotive brands from Europe and the US. Motorsport is deeply ingrained in the BMW DNA and we are pleased to partner with an organization which shares that same heritage. Rahal Letterman Racing is the perfect partner to be behind the wheel of our new BMW M3 racing effort."

Pink Buggati Veyron

http://www.rhinocarhire.com/Car-Hire-Blog/April-2009/Hire-a-Buggati-Veyron.aspx

Hire a Buggati Veyron for £15,000 per day !

You wouldn’t know there is a credit crunch following news that the world’s most pricey rental car is on the market at a staggering £15,000 per day.

The Buggati Veyron is worth more than £800,000 pounds, part of the reason why this large and fast car costs so much to hire out.
The other main reason is that the car, which can go at almost 250 miles per hour and does 0-60 in under three seconds, is one of only 25 of its kind in the world.

The £15 grand daily rate is nothing compared to the deposit required for this bad boy – a whopping £100,000. And that’s not surprising considering the car needs 10 radiators just to keep its eight litre engine from overheating.

Considering premier league footballers are some of the only people wealthy enough to afford that, and most of them buy their cars, it begs the question of who does hire this behemoth? It has apparently already been taken out twice this year.

The owner of the Buggati Veyron is actually a business man who has leased it to the car company so he can make money when he is not using it.

The car company is Holders Prestige and Performance Car Hire which is based in Reading, Berkshire.
Company spokesman Eesa Mander said: "This is unquestionably the best car on the planet and for that reason alone it commands a massive price tag.
"It has the ultimate speed and performance and people are prepared to pay a premium price for those qualities.

"People take this out and drive across Europe to Monaco to experience some luxury - it's an experience car. They need to consider that it will attract a lot of attention."
For the £70,000 it costs to rent the Buggati Veyron per week you could rent a whole fleet of small economy cars.
