BMW M1 2008

PostDateIcon February 25th, 2010 | PostAuthorIcon Author: admin

BMW Introduced their M1 Homage Concept at the 2008 Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este held in Cernobbio, Italy. I appreciate old concept cars, but now the designers were really trying to figure out what the future car industry would be like. Example is just here… Look at BMW M1, a stunning, cool mid-engine car.

The M1 was powered by a 3.5-liter six-cylinder that was later modified and used in the M5 and M6. No powertrain details were shared for the M1 Homage as the car was built as a design showpiece.

Produced from 1978 to 1981, the M1 was BMW’s first and only mid-engined street car. The project was originally contracted to ‘Lamborghini’ for chassis development and assembly, but when the Italian firm hit a financial rough patch BMW took over. A total of 456 M1s were built.
