Just a few hours ago we showed you the first official preview of the wildest sports car that BMW M is preparing and with which the agenda of its 50th anniversary celebrations will culminate. A preview of the 2023 BMW 3.0 CSL that marks the first public appearance of the prototype camouflaged in spy photos, ready to enter the Nürburgring.
The 50th anniversary of BMW M will culminate at the end of the year with a very significant presentation, that of the BMW 3.0CSL 2023. A special and very exclusive edition of a very high-performance sports car that has already been confirmed, just a few hours ago, by the head of the sports brand. An advance that presaged an imminent appearance of the camouflaged prototype in the testing landscape.
And it just materialized with these spy photos, the first hunted at the very door of those of BMW M in the surroundings of the Nürburgring circuit, where it will not take long to appear. The BMW 3.0 CSL will be part of an exclusive limited edition for very discerning customers around the world. Part of the base of the new BMW M4 CSL, but the images show very interesting details, as seen from more angles than the official preview can be seen. a notable influence of the aggressive 3.0 Hommage and Hommage R presented last year 2015.

It is the case of the new shape of the ovoid grille, identical to that of these two conceptual proposals, which give it a unique appearance, but also the “V” shape of the lower bumper grille, the spoiler on the lip or the round air vents at the ends of the bumper. The impressive alloy wheels give a good account of the performance that this beast will offer, which has wheels of forged alloys that reveal the imposing carbo-ceramic brake system with its yellow tweezers.
Even the hood panel is different, which means it’s one more piece of carbon fiber, next to the roof panel. But the most relevant is in the rear, with nothing less than two fixed spoilers, a more discreet one at the end of the roof and a much more striking one occupying the rear of a creation that is more typical of a collector’s item than a serial production model. And it is that aerodynamics seems key in this BMW 3.0 CSL
The modern reinterpretation of the 3.0 CSL from the 7 years0 reissues the six-cylinder 3.0-liter biturbo “S58” petrol engine from the M3 and M4, although this time the maximum power and torque values have been stretched to a practically unattainable level, but which demonstrates the possibilities of this propeller adorned with competition technology. A extra 50 hp that will mean touching the 600 hp barrierfully transferred to rear axle via a 6-speed manual gearbox. The fastest sports car in its category will begin to shine later this year, when it will be presented.
