I wonder if those are actual X3s or tube frames with X3-like body panels just like the Racing Lancer" Unlike the Racing Lancer which looks nothing like the production Lancer, BMW tried to make their racing X3, the BMW X3CC (Cross Country) resemble the production X3 (at least from the outside). This is how the BMW X3CC looks like: http://i367.photobucket.com/albums/oo118/AM2_album/X3CC04.jpg “Second and third place were BMW X3 SUVs.
