First look at the new Cadillac GT3.
Is it because of the camo, but does it not look like a 2 door ?

Of course it's a two door. It's got two doors, the opening is right in front of the rear wheel arch. Look forward to seeing it in racing colours. Has it been confirmed what engine it will use?

And the M6 makes some sense for BMW. Was hoping it would be the M4, and the reason given (looks like the DTM car) is pathetic, but will await the new M6 eagerly.

I don't remember reading anywhere that Alpina was planning a new car, I think they were just considering working with a privateer to run the current one, from memory.

"Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters like GT3 GT-R". It doesn't make a favor to GT racing so different aero to Road cars. I'd Rather the GTR GT1 way.

Hmm, the front has most of the styling derived from the 2014 GT500 car, especially on the side fenders. I wonder it's a good thing?

So alot of mfg´s are putting out new cars for next year, and a couple of new brands will debut. What do we get so far, in terms of new machinery?
New brands: Cadillac, Lexus (will the Camaro and Maserati go international next season? Or Ginetta for that matter?)
New cars: McLaren, Nissan, (Lamborghini?), (Audi?). Will the rumored BMW come next season? Callaway C7? Will we see a Viper on European soil? Any news from Ferrari? I know Porsche postponed the GT3 car, and Aston has said their old machine will have to do. Mercedes will retire the SLS eventually, and presumably replace it with the new GT. Bentley will most likely just continue with their project as is.

Big news if this comes to pass. Didn't think Blancpain could get any stronger!

ART to likely campaign the Lexus RC F and move away from McLaren.

ART's team boss had said before that they aren't too happy about competing against thinly veiled factory outfits as mere privateers, so this actually makes a lot of sense. If you can't beat them, join them.

Am I weird? or I prefer them sitcking to the SLS, Personally I'd rather american cars (Vette,Viper) into the BES than SLS and Z4 replacers.

Don't understand this quote from ART. They are the factory team of Mclaren. So why complain about other factory teams? Or did I misunderstood it?

There was an interview on endurance info a while ago in which their boss claimed that they didn't get any preferential treatment over the other McLaren customers other than being loaned factory drivers.
