Did BMW really design/build/test a car or existed it only on paper?
I remember the Lola - it had several guises including an evolutionary Mazda rotary version in GTP at one point and Cossie engines in Europe?

The BMW pointis interesting - did this end up as the GTP version that ran only for a year or two (March based?) in 1986/7. looked highly promising and then got canned, or was that an entirely separate project?
