BMW has dug into its history books, picked out one of the prettiest, fastest, lightest cars of note, and built this as a tribute – the BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage Concept.

Details are light at the moment as BMW has yet to send out a release, but the bustling crowd at the 2015 Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este has already been afforded a first look of BMW’s latest concept. The new car features widened bodywork and a dramatic rear wing in the style of the original CSL.

We will have more on BMW’s latest Hommage as the story develops.

D When I bought our truck there were so many complaints about the 12 inch screen delaminating that I refused to buy any of the trucks that the dealer had on the lot. I ordered a trim with a smaller screen, no friggin GPS and lots of old fashioned buttons. Within 3 months of delivery there was a recall on all the trucks on this guy's lot. He was faced with a stop-selling order for all of them because the screen malfunction ment no access to critical functions. I kept on driving mine.
EBFlexing on ur mom I was hoping Jeep would announce the HEMI is returning to the Grand Cherokee. Needs to happen ASAP.

Grandmaster T • Matt, when you become an automotive executive, I predict that the executive meetings at that company will be very long meetings. (You use a lot of words, is what I'm saying.) [Like Mazda adding mass to a vehicle, they don't know when to stop. 😅]• Ajla said, "I think it's reasonably likely that the people regularly posting on general purpose car websites like this one are above average drivers from a safety and skill perspective." That probably maybe applies to some regular posters. It is highly likely that some regular posters are complete self-absorbed jerks behind the wheel.• I think anyone commenting on this article should list their automotive insurance claims history, and maybe their history of moving violations. (Here are mine: [ ]).• Matt, have you done any 0-60 runs in the family Mazda recently?• Learn to drive, people.My solar panel was delivered yesterday. How far can I drive an EV on 300 watts of sunshine per day? (You know what else uses solar power? The European spacecraft carrying Americans into sort-of-deep space right now.)
Jkross22 Auto insurance institute claims tech = safety. I believe that auto emergency braking has prevented 2-5 mph fender benders that would cost thousands to repair. But how many are calibrated correctly to prevent false positives? Not many.LKA is intrusive and dangerous. Having the wheel vibrate and pulled in a direction different than what I am doing is terrible.Convoluted menu systems, using screens instead of hard buttons causing distractions and drivers losing focus because of that..... they'll never cop to this. But don't touch your phone because it's distracting. Screens themselves shoulder a chunk of the blame.
