The All-New BMW 3.0 CSL is Revealed

BMW has announced the New 3.0 CSL, a New Special model By M Division.

The latest kidney grille takes inspiration from the 3.0 CSL Homage concept of 2015, but now it has a diamond-shaped insert with a lattice shape in the center. It's clear from the grille's satin-finished aluminum frame that the engineers drew significant inspiration from the original 3.0 CSL. The recessed front apron is evidence of this, as it resembles that model's trademark face. They also serve a functional role, as the fins help cool the engine and brakes. The hood-mounted air fins are also a throwback to the 1970s model.

The most notable characteristic of the car is its rear spoiler, which is reminiscent of the batmobile's. Featuring a retro-flavored M Power logo, the wing is as wide as the entire derrière of the 3.0 CSL and has enclosed sides, just like the original had 50 years ago. The large aero element is complemented by a roof-mounted spoiler akin to the E9 model.

The new 3.0 CSL has a pristine Alpine White Uni paint finish and traditional M graphics. It's powered by the most powerful inline-six engine Bavarian Motor Works has created to date to make for an incomparable driving experience. The twin-turbo 3.0-liter is rated at 553 hp (412 kW) and 550 Nm (404 lb-ft). Interestingly, the torque figure is actually down by a significant 100 Nm (74 lb-ft) compared to the M4 Competition and M4 CSL. That's likely because the ultra-exclusive special edition uses a six-speed manual gearbox that can't handle the full torque.
