BMW M4 GT3 Evo #98 winner of the 2025 Nürburgring 24h – prototype, model line and technical base
The miniature shown here is clearly based on the BMW M4 GT3 Evo #98 winner of the 2025 24 Hours of Nürburgring, so it represents the upgraded GT3 racing version of the current M4. The underlying production model is the M4 generation G82, built since 2020. The predecessor to the matching GT3 race car was the BMW M6 GT3, followed later by the regular BMW M4 GT3, before the Evo version came along. BMW M Motorsport handled the design and development of the GT3 car; in the wider BMW M racing context, names like Franciscus van Meel are often mentioned on the brand side, while the production car was shaped by Domagoj Dukec. The BMW M4 GT3 Evo #98 winner of the 2025 Nürburgring 24h is based on a front-engine concept with a longitudinally mounted twin-turbo inline-six, around 3.0 liters of displacement, and output adjusted to roughly 500 horsepower under the GT3 balance-of-performance rules. It also comes with a sequential 6-speed racing gearbox, rear-wheel drive, racing ABS, traction control, extensive data logging, and a cooling and aero setup built for endurance racing.
Motorsport success of the BMW M4 GT3 and where the #98 Nürburgring winner fits in
In international GT3 racing, the BMW M4 GT3 Evo #98 winner of the 2025 24 Hours of Nürburgring fits into an already successful line of BMW customer racing cars. The M4 GT3 was developed for both sprint and endurance racing and has been used in series like GT World Challenge, IMSA, DTM, NLS, and the 24-hour race at the Nürburgring. On the Nordschleife in particular, endurance, drivability over long stints, and effective aerodynamics are absolutely crucial. That’s exactly the kind of environment where the winning car with start number 98 made its mark. Cars in this class benefit from a stiff safety cage, a racing brake system with large brake discs, adjustable dampers, and bodywork that is clearly designed for downforce and thermal stability, especially around the splitter, diffuser, fender vents, and rear wing.
Drivers, race use, and racing history of the BMW M4 GT3
Well-known drivers who have raced the BMW M4 GT3 in different championships include Augusto Farfus, Jesse Krohn, Nicky Catsburg, Sheldon van der Linde, Dries Vanthoor, and Connor De Phillippi. In endurance racing, the car quickly became important because BMW designed the M4 GT3 not just as a factory racer, but also as a customer racing car with a wide range of uses. That gives BMW a strong pool of race and test data, which usually leads to improvements in reliability, setup flexibility, and ease of servicing. The Evo version of the BMW M4 GT3 Evo #98 winner of the 2025 Nürburgring 24h therefore also stands for ongoing technical updates. In motorsport terms, it matters that the car is built to handle high mileage between service intervals, and its assemblies, such as the front end, cooling modules, and aero parts, are optimized for race use with repair time in mind.
1/18 model car by Minichamps – livery, sponsors, and visible details
For collectors, the most interesting part here is definitely how the specific racing livery has been reproduced. The model comes in a white base color with yellow and black sections plus blue accents. The hood features a big red ROWE logo, and the sides carry the large ROWE MOTOR OIL wordmark. Other clearly visible sponsors and partners include Ansys, DEKRA, Michelin, H&R, KW, Puma, Falken, Ravenol, and Gran Turismo. The start number 98 appears on the roof, hood, and doors. Also noticeable are the contrasts between the white main surfaces, the black carbon areas on the hood, splitter, and upper fenders, and the yellow zones along the roof frame, front fenders, and rear section. In the photos, you can clearly make out the front splitter, the large BMW kidney grille, slim racing headlights, center hood vents, mirrors, antennas, and the big rear wing. Because the doors and front section are open, it’s obvious that this is a 1/18 scale model car by Pauls Modell Art / Minichamps, with both interior and technical areas included. It should also be mentioned that the miniature is made of diecast material.
Collector model from neophyte1410’s collection – finish, proportions, and overall look
In modelly member neophyte1410’s collection, this version comes across as a very clear racing car with a strong focus on proportions, aerodynamics, and livery execution. The body of the model car in 1/18 scale by Pauls Modell Art / Minichamps captures the wide track, pronounced wheel arches, and long front end of the GT3 car in a convincing way. You can see black multi-spoke wheels with racing tire lettering, a detailed front end with separate lighting parts, and a cockpit area with a roll structure. Under the opened front hood, lines, braces, and technical components are reproduced, which is a big plus for collectors with a GT3 model like this. The model works not through flashy effects, but through the clean shape of the prototype: large air intakes, functional aero parts, a low-mounted splitter, and the compact cabin in relation to the wide axles. Especially thanks to the combination of white, yellow, black, and the red ROWE lettering, the photos create a very readable racing look that stays close to the appearance of the BMW M4 GT3 Evo #98 winner of the 2025 Nürburgring 24h and makes it easy for motorsport and model car fans to place it.
