DCM 1:18 BMW M3 GTR E46 Alloy Diecast Model Car

🏷️ Overview

The BMW M3 GTR E46 was developed in 2001 as a factory-built race car for the American Le Mans Series, featuring a dry-sump P60B40 4.0 L V8 engine rated at 460 hp (330 kW) for the track version and detuned to 380 hp for the ten homologation Strassen road cars. This E46 M3 GTR claimed seven wins out of ten races in the 2001 ALMS season, cementing BMW’s “Porsche Killer” reputation. The road-going Strassen versions were priced at €250,000 each and featured full aluminum V8, racing-style twin-disc clutch, and a six-speed manual gearbox.

DCM’s detailed 1:18 replica measures approximately 26 cm long ×10.5 cm wide ×7.5 cm high, weighs around 2 kg with packaging, and is offered in Oxford Green or Black Warrior finishes—both evocative of the original race liveries. Each model is mounted on its original DCM base and shipped in factory carton packaging, making it display-ready straight out of the box.
