BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage

The BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage is a prototype car made to celebrate forty years of BMW in North America and the great competition success of the BMW 3.0 CSL in 1975, the model on which it is based. Its styling recalls the IMSA racing versions, with widened wings, a rear spoiler above the C pillar, huge deflectors and X-shaped lights that echo the stickers on endurance racers. Inside, the driver is the vanishing point of the layout, and BMW proposes that the visor of the driver's helmet itself should project speed, gear and engine revs. The driver's overalls were designed by Puma with illuminated seams that show performance information, the seat is fixed straight to a carbon fibre chassis to stiffen it, and a roll cage is built into the structure beside carbon fibre and wood trim. BMW has revealed nothing officially about the engines.
