Yes it does look very much like a G35. I think the rear fenders do it.

Are you sure they're going to race it this season? On the Rahal/Letterman team website it says: "Today’s announcement, which came in conjunction with the unveiling of the new BMW M3 race car at the Chicago Auto Show, will see Rahal Letterman Racing campaign a full-time, two-car effort beginning in 2009."

BMW or not, ALMS starts in a month, pair that with the fact that F1 starts the week before, and march is going to be awesome.

Awesome. Porsche won't be able to bitch anymore like they did with the previous M3 GT-R. Saying that with a V8 it wasn't an actual production car.

Anyone notice whats in the background in the third pic? Thats right, E92 M3. This past weekend in Monterey was the press release day for the 1 series and the new M3. They had 30 new M3s at the track and I saw a bunch of 128s and 135s driving around town. The 135 in Sadona Red is HOT! Cant wait for the car to be released!
