The GT had the S50 with a higher compression ratio and made 295 hp, vs our 240 and Canada's 286. I don't think the GT had as many weight saving measures as the LTW and certainly the Canadian S50 LTW is the rarest, and likely fastest of the three due to power and weight. The GT was listed as 66 pounds lighter than the regular M3 while the LTW was around 200 pounds lighter.
