And then, a GT3 does not necessarily have to be RWD, look at the Audi TT-RS in VLN, it basically runs at a GT3 pace. Given a favourable BoP it probably could compete for race wins week in week out.
From a financial or, competition perspective it makes sense.

They can maintain some form of competitive presence against Audi (and, multiple other marques) via this route, and for a fraction of the budget necessary to compete (with a factory presence) elsewhere. I'd really like to see it happen.
