BMW has presented a very curious and special preview of the next novelty that it has on the launch agenda. The German firm, and especially the sports division that celebrates its 50th anniversary, have an important ace up their sleeve, the modern reinterpretation of the BMW 3.0 CSL, a limited edition beast based on the new M4 CSL.
The recently presented new BMW M4 CSL is the sportiest icing on the range of sports models from the Munich manufacturer, but by no means the most exclusive. The Bavarian firm is preparing something much more radical that will not be as affordable as this wildest version of the M4, of which there are only a thousand units in production for the whole world, but will be much more exclusive and available to very few lucky.
It is the exclusive BMW 3.0 CSLa modern reinterpretation of the old 3.0 CSL, which has just been previewed already officially by Frank van Meel, the head of BMW M, posing just this creation that wears a unique camouflage and never seen before. Although he has not been seen in any of the test sites that Germans are used to visiting, the truth is that the camouflage reveals very special details, for example the new radiator grille.
The modern BMW 3.0 CSL is the embodiment of the 3.0 Hommage
Neither the vertical nor narrow of the Series 4 nor the traditional ovoid, although it clearly points in this line and bites off a lot of the front bumper, but that is as familiar to us as the new fixed spoiler on the boot lid and of considerable dimensions. If you don’t remember, we’ll tell you: they are Two characteristic features of BMW 3.0 CSL Homagewhich was introduced in 2015. Take a good look at this concept car because the design of the front bumper practically matches as well.
The defense shows some new new lines with a new spoiler on the lower edge and large air intakeswhich have forced the license plate to be relocated, leaving maximum space for the cooling and ventilation of the mechanics, while the camouflage already reveals two round air intakes at the ends. A special personality for a very high-flying sports car, based on the new M4 CSL, so will not have the rear seatsreplaced by a carbon panel.
The light material will be distributed throughout the bodywork, which also advances details of its mechanical configuration: a change six-speed manual will accompany the inline six-cylinder engine and 3.0 liters of the M4 CSL that will experience a level practically indescribable. Although the pools are open, a brutal increase of 50 hp on this model is expected, reaching 590 CV all to the rear axle. A true unprecedented and unrivaled beast, which is expected to be presented before the end of the year.
