Introducing the BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage R Concept

BMW269 · 08-14-2015, 05:10 AM

Best looking BMW ever! Now that is something I'd want over a Lexus. Too bad BMW buyers don't like good looking cars.

Yeineken · 08-14-2015, 05:21 AM

Now that z4 gt3... I'll take one of those.

swagon · 08-14-2015, 06:31 AM

I like it. Better than the first concept, but still, the O.G. CSL is the king.

It looks like it is powered by the new B58 engine?

Matski · 08-14-2015, 07:10 AM

I think it looks fantastic, it fixed the only real grip I had with the last Hommage, and that was the grille. Now it's not got those awful chrome slats it looks a hundred times better.

Paint job is nice to.

Put it into production BMW!

Looks awesome! Like the 911 and the mustang, they need to stick to more signature design cues other than just the kidney grill.

NiceGuyEddie · 08-14-2015, 07:35 AM

Hell of a snout on that thing - yikes.

IEDEI · 08-14-2015, 07:48 AM

I have found the animal version of this concept. Sneaky beaver.

Perfect.

BMW it is time to cut Jon Sibsl a check for his rendering, for fixing your mess.

The Hommage is the only good looking one.

You, sir, have made the car correct. Congrats. Even more than the arches, I like the loss of the:

ShocknAwe · 08-14-2015, 10:37 AM

Headlights look ridiculous, and I hate the new Audi-style DRLs. Should have stuck with the rings. Otherwise, the car looks much better in the classic livery than the puke yellow.

Noticed a distinct lack of a third pedal.

fortressmaximus · 08-14-2015, 11:18 AM

This looks much better than the lime green one. The only thing that looks off to me are the kidney grills and the front bumper. The rest looks good. Unexpectedly, I think this looks better than the M4 GTS concept.

The kidney grills + front bumper makes it look like those pigs from Angry Birds.

Well done. Looks great. Got rid of the pig-like kidneys/front bumper.

klrgoten · 08-14-2015, 11:27 AM

Kidneys do look off a bit but I'm liking the rest of the car.... Loving the simplistic interior

Thanks for sharing.

not a fan of the Bugatti-esque grill, but those headlights with the blue x's are rad!
