The question now is which model of cars could be allow in the championship? Only know that BMW will use the M3.
1)Supercars: Mercedes SLS AMG, Audi R8, Honda HSV 010, Lexus LFA, Nissan GTR.....
2)Coupes: Audi RS5, BMW M3, Mercedes CLK, Nissan 370Z, the future Toyota FT 86.....
3)4 doors sedan: Audi A4, Mercedes C, BMW M5, Lexus IS....
4)All of that and then the brands choose your model.
The Nissan GTR for your size could be a coupe too.

BMW runs M3's against 458 Ferrari's in other series, going against GTR's HSV's and LFA's shouldn't be a big issue.

Added Supergt, DTM and the future DTM(Grand am) they need to do:
This accord must be fantastic because would have 3 championship with 6 marks (Honda, Lexus, Nissan, Mercedes, Audi and BMW) in 3 different continents. Each brand could have 1 team with 2 or 3 cars in each championship and could have a world championship with 30 races (10 for championship) without the cost to transport the cars between the continents. Only must be fly the drivers to run every race

Totally agree with you on the bold bit. Don't see How you would possibly restrict each brand to one team though, as most of these brands already have 4-6 teams and they aren't going to give that up in their respective series... Or do you mean only towards a world championship?

well the M3 they race with is sooo heavily modified from the road car that its basically an M3 supercar. If you open the hood you wonder where the engine is. Thats how low and far back in the front end of the chassis it is. They scrapped the gearbox and use a transaxle. If they built a road going version of the M3 racecar it would by ligtyears ahead of the current original M3. lol

Yes, me idea is 1 team with 2 or 3 cars for brand in each championship. The others teams of the brand in the actually will have use another brand and so you have every brands in each championship. Then you have 3 teams for brands, 1 in each championship. The drivers must be the same in all championship, then you have a world championship with 30 races(10 for each championship).

Not gonna happen, at least for damned sure in the Japanese camp. Ask Samuari how fiercely loyal most of these guys are to the brand they race for/with.
